Question

I have a class, where I declare it, but that class gets added as an item to another bigger class. Is there a way to call the Init() method in the same statement as the call? Similar to defining public properties/variables when you call the constructor. I don’t want to call the Init() method in the constructor because it messes with the WPF Designer.

 FitsView fv = new FitsView();
 fv.Init();

You could use a static function to do that:

public static FitsView CreateFitsView()
{
    var fv = new FitsView();
    fv.Init();
    return fv;
}

Then you simply call that static function instead of new FitsView()
