Several years ago, we created a sample for showing how a hosted Windows Workflow Designer instance could be integrated with Actipro WPF controls within a custom WPF application to provide a very elegant interface for end users.
We've been updating the sample over time and are have just released another updated version. This one demonstrates how generics (like List<T>) can be supported as variable types.
Here's a screenshot showing a "stringList" variable defined as "List<string>". We then can access the list variable's IntelliPrompt completion and parameter info (pictured) in any expression.
Our Docking/MDI product is used to provide the tool window and multiple document interface. Our SyntaxEditor code editor control, in single line edit mode, is injected as a custom expression editor. When you combine SyntaxEditor with our .NET Languages Add-on, you are able to have it support powerful IntelliPrompt completion lists, quick info, and parameter info.
It's very easy to integrate Actipro WPF controls with rehosted Windows Workflow Designer instances in your applications. It only takes a few minutes to get up and running, and once you do, the result is well worth the time.
If you rehost the Windows Workflow Designer in your WPF apps and would like our example, please contact us and we'll be happy to share it with you!
For those customers who downloaded either of the prior versions, this update is at the same URL as before.
Our v2017.2 WPF, Universal Windows, and Silverlight controls have all been updated with new maintenance releases that are now ready for download.
Let's take a quick look at some of the more notable features that were added.
The series style selector's method for picking each bar's style in a bar chart has been updated to be passed bar index and count, allowing for individual bars to be customized.
The docking window container UIA hierarchy has been updated to better support Coded UI Test. These changes should now allow Coded UI Tests for controls in docking windows to record and play back successfully.
There is now a property that can be set temporarily to prevent an auto-hide popup from closing when WPF keyboard focus is lost from it, which can happen if a dialog window is opened from a button on the docking window. In this scenario in the past, the button could be clicked and the auto-hide popup might slide back. The new option allows the popup to remain open when the dialog is open.
Updated docking window logic now shows dock guides by default for linked dock sites at the same nesting level, when there are multiple dock sites nested. If there are multiple linked dock sites covering the same drag location, the Shift key can be held to switch dock guides to an alternate dock site.
Logic has been updated to block some input that would trigger a shorter match.
The CornerRadiusEditBox, PointEditBox, RectEditBox, SizeEditBox, ThicknessEditBox, and VectorEditBox controls now all have properties that can be set to allow NaN and infinity component values.
The distance between digital gauge segments for the 7-segment (normal) and 14-segment (normal) character sets has been reduced, making the digital gauges easier to read at certain sizes, and more like most real readouts.
The free language definition files now support C# 6 and VB 14 enhancements.
The XML auto-completion logic in the Web Languages Add-on will self-close start tags if a '/' is typed.
There were also a large number of smaller improvements made throughout the products. See the announcement posts for the detailed list of enhancements and updates:

Let's take a quick look at some of the more notable features that were added.
The mouse wheel can now scroll document tabs when in an overflow situation and using certain tab overflow behaviors.
Updated the color pickers such that the end user can tap and drag anywhere in a hue ring or saturation/brightness square to change color attributes, and not just on the thumb.
Added a new drop-down to ColorPicker that allows switching between RGB and HSB text input modes.
Added new features for adding custom inline UI elements within edit boxes, like the "Now" button in the TimeEditBox below.
Improved the DateEditBox and TimeEditBox default formats to better support parsing of entered text values that lack part delimiters.
Added the TreeListViewColumn.SortDirection property and related ColumnSortDirection enumeration that can be used to indicate that a sort glyph should appear in the column header when paired with a custom sorting mechanism.
Improved TreeListBox to better handle property updates from view-models on other threads.
Improved TreeListBox selection tracking performance.
Improved numerous edit actions to retain their final selection after the action goes through an undo/redo process.
Improved how Tab indenting is handled when there is a block selection.
Improved the Cut Line to Clipboard edit action to support multiple lines.
Improved the .NET Languages Add-on's logic for selecting the best IntelliPrompt parameter info member overload when typing a comma at the end of an argument list.
Improved the XML line commenter in the Web Languages Add-on to comment the entire line text when there is no selection.
