InvalidOperationException: 'System.Windows.Documents.Hyperlink' is not a Visual or Visual3D

I updated an app that has been working for years to16.1.634.0, and I have a weird problem now. I know the MDI library was completely revamped, and I am wondering if this is maybe a bug that was introduced, and if so, has it subsequently been fixed.

 

I have a navigation panel that is taken from one of the Actipro examples. It's basically a column of hyperlinks inside of an ExplorerBar. Commands are bound to a view model. When I click on a hyperlink now, this exception gets thrown. It happens even before control goes to my command, so I can't even debug.

Hi Jim,

I believe build 635 fixed that bug.  Could you grab the latest maintenance release and try again?

I installed 636 and that fixes it, thanks.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.2) was released 14 days ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
