I was wondering if ASPX page can use WPF Controls (from the toolbox in the designer)?
Because I have a custom user control that I made for a application before but now i am creating a web app. In the web app the controls were grayed out.
I was wondering if there is a way to use the user control in the web app?
Unfortunately, you’ll have to create a new ASP.Net control that mimics your WPF control. The two technologies have completely different approaches to rendering (DirectX primitives vs. HTML), events (Routed events vs. Postbacks), etc. and are simply not compatible.
That being said, converting a WPF control to a Silverlight control is doable, and would allow you to leverage your previous work. You would still need to run it through a Silverlight app, though, rather than directly through the ASPX page.
