  What errors are you seeing in Cider

  Do Avalon projects build and run in VS

  This looks like a configuration or installation issue with your installation of WinFX on Vista. I'm afraid I don't know very much about this area. I'd suggest trying the Avalon forum: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx ForumID=119&SiteID=1

  Sorry I couldn't be much help

  Dear Mark,

  I just changed devenv.exe's Compatibility mode to Win XP SP 2 and ran it as an administrator. The Avalon Project built successfully and started up, but I had an error with the description "Error at element 'DockPanel' in markup file 'WindowMain.xaml' : An unspecified error occurred on the render thread.." and the program stopped execution on app.run() and went in debug mode.

  Also this is the stack trace:

  Breaking News!

  I tried to start (run) my avalon project with Debugging->Step Into command. I walked through my own code and the generated ones step by step and line by line. Everything went well till the las control on "baml"/"xaml" was connected through IComponentConnector and I think the program went into its main dispatcher loop, but no window on screen! It just allocated memory just like Expression Interactive Designer which I explained in the thread starter message.

  I'm really confused

  Thanx Mark for your attention.

  When I try to open a .xaml file, the IDE opens the file with the associated xaml visual designer ("Cider"). File opens and even I can see the Design/Xaml/Source tab selectors on the bottom, but there's nothing inside the Design mode, just a white blank page which I couldn't drop any of the controls on it. But there isnt any error shown anywhere.

  When I tried to build an Avalon project, I got 3 "Access denied" errors which shows that VS cannnot create output folders and I couldnt change the credentials, actually I  dont know how it is possible.

  Waiting for your reply.
