Managed type converters and Blend resolved

July 20, 2008 – 14:56

I previously posted about Blend 2.5 June Preview not supporting managed type converters and I’m pleased to report that the team has resolved it according to the bug report that I filed.

Hopefully we’ll see a new build of Blend 2.5 very soon as I’m quite tired of not being able to size DataGrid columns properly. In the meantime I’ve resorted to using the MinWidth property, but it isn’t quite the same.

  2. Back from the dead! I am experiencing this issue using
    Blend 3. I have changed the source for System.Windows.Controls.Data
    and though everything runs and compiles fine, when one of my xaml
    pages that references this assembly gets loaded into Blend I just
    get a string of TypeConverter for DataGridLength does not support
    messages. So, what can I do to make this go away?
