Description
The following code should render a Windows 11 style WPF Window in PowerShell 7 (fx dependent, using .NET 9 Preview 4)
Add-Type -AssemblyName PresentationFramework
[xml]$xaml = @"
<Window
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
x:Name="Window">
<Window.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/PresentationFramework.Fluent;component/Resources/Fluent.xaml" />
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Window.Resources>
<StackPanel>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<TextBox x:Name="MyTextBox" Width="150" />
<Button x:Name="SubmitButton" Content="Submit" Margin="5" />
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</Window>
"@
$reader = (New-Object System.Xml.XmlNodeReader $xaml)
$window = [Windows.Markup.XamlReader]::Load($reader)
$window.ShowDialog()
Current Result: Black window, although I can tell the elements are there because if I hover over the textbox my cursor changes. Doesn't appear to be properly loading the ResourceDictionary
Confirmed that my PowerShell 7 console is using .NET 9 preview 4:
> [System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation]::FrameworkDescription
.NET 9.0.0-preview.4.24266.19
Perhaps I am just missing something beyond adding the proper ResourceDictionary?
