How to make a WPF window as a child to C# Winfoms MDI

Question

Hi,

Is it possible to make a WPF window as a child to C# MDI winform. If yes please give me the code. If no please give me the alternate solution.

Thank you, Shashi

Answer 1

Given that From.MdiChildren is an array of Forms, I do not think that this would be easy to do. A better approach would be to change your WPF UI to be a UserControl instead of a Window, and then add your UserControl to a Form using the ElementHost control. There seems to be a few tutorials for this around (one example is http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/wpf-tutorial-using-wpf-in-winforms, from a quick search).
