please attach a minimal sample. Also the StackTrace seems to be incomplete, please post the entire error message printed.

I can't it's prod application too complex...and the trace is from the designer windows of visual... I will investiguate to see if i can find out more

@TheCamel Which version of VS do you use?

[TheCamel]

@punker76 Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2022 (64 bits) - Current Version 17.9.6

I tried to debug visual with another visual, but can't get any "catch". May be I have to include the mahapps project in my solution. I used the trick from here https://docs.devexpress.com/GeneralInformation/403685/support-services/obtain-exception-call-stack#get-exception-call-stack-of-design-time-errors-in-visual-studio

@punker76

I avoid the crash by testing the design property

private void HamburgerMenuControl_ItemInvoked(object sender, HamburgerMenuItemInvokedEventArgs args) { if (args.IsItemOptions || System.ComponentModel.DesignerProperties.GetIsInDesignMode(this) ) { return; }

[TheCamel]

In fact in handler i have the commented line below at the end that cause the exception in the main window, but not in the user control itself. I will try to write it more secure=> nothing change, same crash Danke. btw i would prefer an update on the other HamburgerMenu issue....tchu$$

private void HamburgerMenuControl_ItemInvoked(object sender, HamburgerMenuItemInvokedEventArgs args)
{
	if (args.IsItemOptions)
	{
		return;
	}

	HamburgerMenuControl.Content = args.InvokedItem;

	// close the menu if a item was selected
	if (HamburgerMenuControl.IsPaneOpen)
	{
		HamburgerMenuControl.IsPaneOpen = false;
	}

	**//((HomeViewModel)DataContext).CurrentView = (ObservableRecipient)((UserControl)((HamburgerMenuIconItem)args.InvokedItem).Tag).DataContext;**
}
