Hi, I installed Ultimate UI for Xamarin but the first installation did not seem to work very well. AppMap would crash and if I did manage to generate, it did not build. I decided to uninstall VS 2017 and Infragistics Ultimate UI for Xamarin and start again.
This time, things looked good. I could use AppMap and could generate and build a solution and run it on a device. However, I just noticed there is no Infragistics menu (unlike in the first installation) and I have no components in the toolbox. I read another post that said to install via Nuget and I just did that but it made no difference. I tried exiting VS and restarting but that did not help. So perhaps I have a partial install? From Nuget I installed Infragistics Core, Infragistics DataGrid and it also installed Core.DV. I just spotted there are XF versions of these so I installed those and in fact ended up installing everything shown. But still no controls showing in the toolbox.
Should I have an Infragistics menu? And what do I need to do or install to see toolbox controls?
Thank you
John.
I found the answer in a great video on You Tube as mentioned in a reply in the Productivity Tools forum. I just needed to use View/Other Windows and select Infragistics Toolbox.
The video if anyone else needs it is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4L3S26U0HeM&list=PLZ4rRHIJepBtrr8VD97foJwL3rwh-xFK6
John,
Apologies for your poor onboarding experience.
I'll get the written help docs updated soon.
Hello,
I have a problem with toolbox. I installed extension "Infragistics Toolbox" from page https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Infragistics.InfragisticsToolbox#qna but Infragistics toolbox is empty.
I am able to show that window but when i open any page it is not populated as shown in video :/
Where should be problem? Visual Studio 2017.
David,
Please installed this VS Extension, run it and see if your problem is cleared up. VS has issues at times and this clears up the problem.

Using Windows Explorer, paste this location into the location bar, the go into the ToolBox folder and send me the Toolbox.log file.
%appdata%\infragistics
How was your project created?
Is it a .NET Standard project?
Clearing tht cache doesn work.
And sadly, there is no folder infragistics in %appdata% (translated to c:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\) :/
I have created project via menu File/New/Project, Cross-Platform -> Cross platform App (Xamarin) (and .NET 4.6.1)

What version of VS are you using?

2017 Comunity
Outstanding, so glad to hear you're good to go.
After reloading the XAML file and reloading the toolbox it worked ok. Thanks,
What time zone are you in?
We should set up a Skype meeting, we have never had anyone not be able to use the tools.
Does Not work :/
I turn on preview of selected file but somehow xamarin xaml files are not previewed and maybe this is broken...
sory my english :)
I have just uploaded version 2.0 of the Toolbox to the MarketPlace.
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Infragistics.InfragisticsToolbox
I have tested on VS 2017 Enterprise and VS 2017 Community. This version also supports .NET Standard projects.
There was one time where the Toolbox appeared not to load, after clicking on the XAML file in the editor, it loaded. Clicking on the XAML file, makes it the Active Document, which caused the Toolbox to load.
Please let me know. Also, do you have delayed loading enabled?
