Can anyone tell me please what I should do in order to get an image/pdf/word from this?
I expect a result similar the one you can see in the picture.
I swear I checked the previous posts but they are talking about WPF xaml and not XAML of activities.
Thank you
Lior

You need to open the XAML file with UiPath Studio, which will render that in the format as per your image.
You haven't said where/which application you are opening the file with, but I suspect you might have the file association for XAML set to some other program (such as Visual Studio).

ArgumentOutOfRangeException during Build with Tools 12.0

We have an (old) build definition is using the UpgradeTemplate.xaml on TFS 2015 (and an underlying TFSBuild.proj which has a heap of custom actions). As such, the task of properly modernising the build is going to take time.
I'd like to hack the UpgradeTemplate to add in C#6/VB14 support without requiring a full re-write of the build definition, in order to keep the devs happy.
I attempted to edit the UpgradeTemplate.xaml to add a ToolPath property on the TfsBuild. However, now that I have done this, I get the following error on nearly all my projects:
ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length
On investigation, the lines of code in these projects all look like this:
<MSBuild.ExtensionPack.VisualStudio.TfsVersion TaskAction="GetVersion"
BuildName="$(BuildDefinition)" TfsBuildNumber="$(BuildNumber)"
VersionFormat="DateTime" DateFormat="MMdd" Major="$(MajorVersion)"
Minor="$(MinorVersion)">
The values of these variables as set printed out by Message tasks on the vbproj:
BuildDefinition: MyBuild-Testing
BuildNumber: 57902
MajorVersion: 43
MinorVersion: 2
The Build server has version 3.5.10 on the MSBuild ExtensionPack installed.
How do I resolve this issue? I'm testing this with a new build definition to allow devs to continue working while I get this set up, so I don't want to replace the ExtensionPack with the latest release (if possible) if it is likely to break the existing build.

Update
I think it might be something to do with running a private build (Latest + Shelveset). When I run a normal build, the BuildNumber variable is MyBuild-Testing_20170328.1. This appears to be working fine.
This issue is due to a difference between Private and Public builds. With Public Builds, the build is immediately numbered as BuildName_DateFormat.BuildNumber. Private builds however, are just numeric (e.g. 57902 above).
The Code in the extension does the following:
string buildstring = this.TfsBuildNumber.Replace(string.Concat(this.BuildName, "_"),
string.Empty);
char[] chrArray = new char[] { '.' };
string[] buildParts = buildstring.Split(chrArray, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
DateTime t = new DateTime(Convert.ToInt32(buildParts[0].Substring(0, 4),
CultureInfo.CurrentCulture),
Convert.ToInt32(buildParts[0].Substring(4, 2),
CultureInfo.CurrentCulture),
Convert.ToInt32(buildParts[0].Substring(6, 2),
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture));
Are you can see, its substringing on the build name, assuming it's been stripped down to the date component (20170328). Private builds aren't this long, and so fail.
This build works fine when running as a public build - basically it means that private builds on this definition are not available until an upgrade takes place.

Error finding the resource dictionary [Fluent.Ribbon]

I have added fluent.dll as reference. After that add a folder on my project called "Themes" and pasted the all theme folder on "Themes" directory. On my application.xaml i have added the below code i.e
<Application x:Class="Application"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
StartupUri="MainWindow.xaml">
<Application.Resources>
<!--Attach Default Fluent Control's Theme-->
<ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/Fluent; Component/Themes/Office2013/Generic.xaml" />
</Application.Resources>
</Application>
But when run it show a error that
an error occurred while finding the resource dictionary
I am using Vs2013 .net ver4.5.
Your spacing is wrong
<ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/Fluent; Component/Themes/Office2013/Generic.xaml" />
should be
<ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/Fluent;Component/Themes/Office2013/Generic.xaml" />

ComponentOne for WinRT: Gauge Pointerlength error?

Whenever I add a ComponentOne gauge to my page, I receive the following exception:
WinRT information: The property 'PointerLength' was not found in type
'C1LinearGaugePointer'.
my Xaml looks like this:
<c1:C1SpeedometerGauge x:Name="myGauge"

CoverVisibility="Collapsed">
<c1:C1GaugeRange To="40" Location="0.95" Fill="#088080" Width="0.1" Opacity="0.2" />

what can be wrong here ?
it's known issue, it has been fixed in build 315. Take the latest build here: http://prerelease.componentone.com/

How do I use "org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchShortcuts"?

I have written a custom launcher in Eclipse which I can access via the "Run As" and "Debug As" menu options on the toolbar. I also want to be able to launch via the package explorer and via right clicking on the editor of a file to be launched. I followed the tutorial here to add the shortcut but nothing happens, it does not enter my handling code, nor does it complain regarding the configuration of the extension point.
Here is a snippet from my plugin.xml
<extension point="org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchShortcuts">
<shortcut
id = "org.mylauncher.launchCalcShortcut"
class = "org.mylauncher.LaunchCalcShortcut"
description="Execute calculations"
icon="icons/launch_16_16.png"
label="Calculate"
modes="run, debug" >
<configurationType id="org.mylauncher.launchCalc"/>
</shortcut>
I have also played with removing the (optional) icon attribute, and have separately validated the path of the icon.
I've been modifying this configuration for hours now with no good result and it is impossible to debug as it is not running in my own code at all.
Thanks.
It seems that the correct answer to this problem is to specify a contextual launch shortcut. Here is my working configuration:
<extension
point="org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchShortcuts">
<shortcut
class="com.xxxx.CalcLaunchShortcut"
icon="calc.png"
id="com.xxxx.CalcLaunchShortcut"
label="Calc"
modes="run, debug">
<contextualLaunch>
<contextLabel mode="run" label="Run Calculator" />
<contextLabel mode="debug" label="Debug Calculator" />
<enablement >
<with variable="selection">
<count value="1"/>
<iterate>
<adapt type="org.eclipse.core.resources.IResource">
<and>
<test property="org.eclipse.core.resources.name" value="*.calc"/>
</and>
</adapt>
</iterate>
</with>
</enablement>
</contextualLaunch>
</shortcut>

WF4 WCF Correlation and MessageContract not working

I know the issue is with my xpath for the correlation. I have tried many different ideas and the only one that works is 11445 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee358742.aspx), but that doesn't give me the tracking with correlation. These don't work
sm:body()/xg0:ClaimObj/xg0:CorrelationId
sm:header()/tempuri:CorrelationId
sm:header()/xg0:ClaimObj/xg0:CorrelationId
sm:header()/tempuri:ClaimObj/tempuri:CorrelationId
I can get it to work with DataContracts just fine, but i need to use MessageContracts
UPDATE:
Here is what i really need to do:
Receive request
send a one way wcf call to Server X
(2nd receive) Server X sends back to workflow in a new wcf call with correlation id, not a reply
do some other stuff
send reply to original receive
Here is the basic workflow I am trying to get working. The issue is that the 2nd receive is not being called due to the xpath not being found.
on a side note, i get the same issue when i try to use correlationinitializer in the first receive

I am missing the CorrelationInitializers in your XAML. The CorrelationInitializers is used to create a correlation on the Receive or SendReply activity with the original request. After that the CorrelatesOn is used in subsequent Receive activities.
I just ran into the same problem and the article you linked to actually helped me resolve it. About 3/4 of the way down the page, there is a paragraph that reads...
If an XPath query is configured incorrectly such that no correlation
data is retrieved, a fault is returned with the following message: "A
correlation query yielded an empty result set. Please ensure
correlation queries for the endpoint are correctly configured." One
quick way to troubleshoot this is to replace the XPath query with a
literal value as described in the previous section. This issue can
occur if you use the XPath query builder in the Add Correlation
Initializers or CorrelatesOn Definition dialog boxes and your workflow
service uses message contracts.
The dialog box always generates queries that target message body properties, even when the property you select is part of the message header. The correct query to access a header property is:
sm:header()/namespace:property
Note that the property name is not qualified by the containing object, so the following query should work for you:
sm:header()/tempuri:CorrelationId
If you'd like to change the namespace of the header property, use the Namespace property of the MessageHeaderAttribute class.
