Silverlight Components Tab, Choose Toolbox Items Dialog Box

  • Artikel

This tab of the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box displays a list of Silverlight controls available on your local computer. To display this list, select Choose Toolbox Items from the Tools menu to display the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box, and then select its Silverlight Components tab. To sort the components listed, select any column heading.

  • When the check box next to a component is selected, an icon for that component will be displayed in the Toolbox.

    Tip

    To add an instance of a Silverlight control to a project document open for editing, drag its Toolbox icon onto the Design view surface. Default markup and code for the component are inserted into your project, ready for you to modify. For more information, see How to: Manage the Toolbox Window and How to: Manipulate Toolbox Tabs.

  • When the check box next to a component is cleared, the corresponding icon will be removed from the Toolbox.
