Expression Blend 4 Add-In (version 1.0.0.2) to create xml files from existing rich text with a xml document structure which is compatible to xaml. The resuling xml file can be added to the Xaml property of a Silverlight 4 RichTextBox or to the XamlSource property of my RichXamlViewer Silverlight 4 UserControl. How to add this Add-In to Expression Blend 4: 1. Add a new folder named "Extensions" under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Expression\Blend 4\. If you already have installed Expression Blend 4 SP1 the "Extensions" folder already exists. 2. Copy the XamlBuilder.Extension.dll into this folder. If needed, replace the .dll of the previous version with the one of version 1.0.0.2. 3. Start Expression Blend 4. 4. In Expression Blend 4 select "Windows" menu and click "XamlBuilder" to activate / deactivate the palette. The usage of this Add-In is the same as with my RichTextBox.Xaml Builder standalone tool. So please refer to the instruction on this tool, that you will find here at theVisual Studio Gallery. Please visit my german blogfor additional information on this Add-In and on the standalone tool, including a screencast on the standalone tool. The screencast demonstrates the standalone tool and is also useful for the usage of the add-in. Please note: This Add-In is provided AS-IS. Anyway, if you have any problems please send me an e-mail (silverlaw [at] t-online.de). Licence terms:
