    Step 1 of 3: Creating a WPF/Silverlight Application
    In This Topic

    In this step you'll create a WPF/Silverlight application in Visual Studio using OutlookBar for WPF and Silverlight.

    To set up your project and add a C1OutlookBar control to your application, complete the following steps:

    1. In Visual Studio, select File | New | Project. Note that Visual Studio 2010 is used to complete the steps in this quick start.
    2. In the New Project dialog box, select a language in the left pane (in this example, C# is used), and in the templates list select WPF or Silverlight Application.
    3. In the .NET Framework drop-down list, select .NET Framework 3.5 or later.
    4. Enter a Name for your project and click OK. The New WPF Application or New Silverlight Application dialog box will appear.
    5. Uncheck the Host the WPF or Silverlight application in a new Web site box, if necessary, and click OK. The MainWindow.xaml file opens.
    6. In the XAML window of the project, place the cursor between the <Grid> and </Grid> tags and click once.
    7. Navigate to the Toolbox and drag the C1OutlookBar icon in between the <Grid> tags to add the C1OutlookBar to MainWindow.xaml or MainPage.xaml. The XAML markup will now look similar to the following:
      WPF XAML
      Copy Code 
      <Window xmlns:c1="http://schemas.componentone.com/winfx/2006/xaml"  x:Class="WpfApplication17.MainWindow"
     xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
     xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
     Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
    <Grid>
      <c1:C1OutlookBar />
    </Grid>
</Window>

       

      Silverlight XAML
      Copy Code 
      <UserControl x:Class="OutlookBar.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
    xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
    mc:Ignorable="d"
    d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="400"
    xmlns:c1="http://schemas.componentone.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:my="clr-namespace:C1.Silverlight;assembly=C1.Silverlight">

    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
        <c1:C1OutlookBar c1:C1NagScreen.Nag="True">
          
        </c1:C1OutlookBar>
    </Grid>
</UserControl>

    In the next step, you will add C1OutlookItems to the C1OutlookBar.
