I am developing a WPF app that contains a webbrowser control that loads a silverlight application. I would like to be able to launch the app from visual studio (F5) and have the debugger attach to the silverlight code. However, I've not had any luck with this.

The best I can currently do is to launch the app without attaching, then once it is up and running, attach to the process manually with silverlight as the specified type of code to debug, and this works. (When I cause the web browser control to load the silverlight app, it will hit breakpoints in my silverlight code). I've written some macros to automate this launching/attaching somewhat, but it still isn't the best.

I've tried specifying the WPF app as the external program to run when launching/debugging the silverlight app, but Visual Studio attaches to the process wanting to debug the managed .NET code.

Any ideas? Ideally, I would really like to attach to the process and debug both the managed .NET and the silverlight code, but I don't think this is possible. I'd really like to automatically be attached to the silverlight code at launch so that I can easily debug all issues with the silverlight app, including those that occur on load.
