Is there a stand-alone visual (WYSIWYG) editor for WPF xaml files like the Visual Studio 2010 designer?

The VS2010 one crashes all the time and is very slow (there are lots of threads on XAML slowness in VS, but all the recommendations seem to point to editing the XML files with a text-based editor). I want a visual one as I’m very new to WPF and it would help me a lot.

Currently I have set gVim to open up .xaml files, but editing the raw XML file is not easy if you don’t know all the possible options / elements / properties / attributes you have available.

I used to use Qt, and the Qt Designer application also edited XML files that specified how the UI is laid-out. It was a stand-alone application, and you never had to actually edit the XML content with a text-editor unless there was a bad problem.

Is there a WPF equivalent?

    Look at Kaxaml and see if it’s what you need.
