Hello there,

I am using Windows 10 22H2 with VisualStudio 2022 17.11.5 x64 and dotnet 8.0.10 and windows app sdk 1.6.1.

I had the same issue with WinUI3 in general. I had my VisualStudio 2022 running in admin mode which was the culprit for me. Once i launched everything in a normal user context without elevated permissions, it started working again.

Maybe that will do as a workaround for you.

[Arlodotexe]

This seems like the error we encountered in #516, which ended up being a platform issue.

@JLBLU Could you please try updating to the latest Preview Packages on the MainLatest feed and see if that resolves your issue?

[JLBLU]

Hi @Arlodotexe

For example, I have no issue with CommunityToolkit.Mvvm 8.2.1 and issue occurs with 8.2.2, even with last version 8.4.0 preview 2

[michael-hawker]

@JLBLU you started with the Windows Community Toolkit WinUI.* packages, we're still talking about those. If you're also having issues with the MVVM packages, you should file a separate issue about those at https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/dotnet.

For your original issue here, do you see any change with the latest 8.2.241112-preview1 packages makes a difference?

[JLBLU]

Hi,

For this issue :
Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Markup.XamlParseException : 'The text associated with this error code could not be found.'
Failed to assign to property 'Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls.ItemsControl.ItemsSource'. [Line: 968 Position: 37]'

I've found that issue comes from the fact that I had a control ComboBox with an ComboBox.ItemTemplate :

                    <ComboBox   Name="cmbTextColorRight" 
                                Grid.Row="11" Grid.Column="0" 
                                MinWidth="150"
                                Margin="5,15,5,0"
                                VerticalAlignment="Center"
                                Tag="TextColor"
                                ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource textColorsSource}, Path=TextColors}"
                                SelectedValuePath="Key"
                                SelectedValue="{Binding SelectedLinkItem.LnkColor, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">
                        <ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
                            <DataTemplate>
                                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                                    <TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding Path=Value}"
                                               Foreground="{Binding Path=Key}"/>
                                </StackPanel>
                            </DataTemplate>
                        </ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
                    </ComboBox>

The aim was to display a list of items with colored text.
This worked for years... but no longer seems compatible with the latest version of... what?

[JLBLU]

Works this way : (modify ItemSource (array class instead static dictionary) and add a Converter to display ColorName

                    <ComboBox   Name="cmbTextColorRight" 
                                Grid.Row="11" Grid.Column="0" 
                                MinWidth="150"
                                Margin="5,15,5,0"
                                VerticalAlignment="Center"
                                Tag="TextColor"
                                ItemsSource="{x:Bind m:DkTextColor.GetClassArrayTextColor()}"
                                SelectedValuePath="ColorKey"
                                SelectedValue="{Binding SelectedLinkItem.LnkColor, 
                                                        Mode=TwoWay, 
                                                        UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">
                        <ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
                            <DataTemplate x:DataType="m:DkTextColor">
                                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                                    <TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" 
                                               Text="{Binding Path=ColorKey, 
                                                              Converter={StaticResource textColorsConverter}}"
                                               Foreground="{Binding Path=ColorKey}"/>
                                </StackPanel>
                            </DataTemplate>
                        </ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
                    </ComboBox>

@JLBLU the code/issue you're now describing seems to not involve any Windows Community Toolkit code now?

If so, then you'd probably want to follow-up and search/file a new issue with that minimal reproduction in the WinUI repo: https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml

[michael-hawker]

Since this appears to be related to just combobox and not specific to the toolkit, but probably underlying change to Windows App SDK underneath, going to close this in the toolkit here.
