How to get started?

Hi,

I'm wondering how to use this with Eto-Wpf. I've tried a few things, but always get an ArgumentOutOfRangeException with the following message:
{"Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.\r\nParameter name: Type for 'Eto.OxyPlot.Plot' could not be found in this platform"} with stacktrace

at Eto.Widget..ctor()
at Eto.OxyPlot.Plot..ctor()
at EtoOxyPlotTest.MainForm..ctor() in D:\zandbak\EtoOxyPlotTest\EtoOxyPlotTest\MainForm.xeto.cs:line 25
at EtoOxyPlotTest.Desktop.Program.Main(String[] args) in D:\zandbak\EtoOxyPlotTest\EtoOxyPlotTest.Desktop\Program.cs:line 12

I use the following MainForm.xeto XAML file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Form
    xmlns="http://schema.picoe.ca/eto.forms" 
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
  Title="My Eto Form"
    ClientSize="400, 350"
    >
  <StackLayout ID="_my" />

</Form>

and code-behind

public MainForm()
{
    XamlReader.Load(this);
    StackLayout sl = FindChild<StackLayout>("_my");

    Plot p = new Plot(); // here I get the exception
    p.Model = new PlotModel();
    p.Model.Title = "Example";
    p.Model.Series.Add(new FunctionSeries(Math.Cos, 0, 10, 0.01, "cos(x)"));
    sl.Items.Add(new StackLayoutItem(p));
}

I would be very grateful if you could share an example project or help me to get this working.

FWIW i figured it out, had to put the platform handler in the Main() method.

var pf = Platform.Detect;
if (pf.IsWpf)
{
    pf.Add(typeof(Plot.IHandler), () => new Eto.OxyPlot.Wpf.PlotHandler());
}

else
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{pf.ID} is not supported.");
    return;
}

new Application(pf).Run(new MainForm());

Ah yes, sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Glad you were able to figure this out on your own
