The type or namespace name could not be found (New to XAML)

Question

So I\'m trying to work a very simple dice app on a XAML document using Visual Studio 2012, but I can\'t figure out what to do with the error. I\'ve tried adding using bitmap

Answer 1

Try

using System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage;

Instead of

using BitmapImage;

An easier way is to let Visual Studio do it for you : Right click on BitmapImage in your code -> resolve, and select the right namespace (there is generaly only one)

For the xaml, let Visual studio do it for you too, or :

<Page ...
    xmlns:local="clr-namespace:System.Windows;assembly=DiceRoll"
/>
