viri:I made it by adding windows app to project (i was a little confused by solution/project relations).
Hi viri,
Seems you have resolved the issue: ?I made it by adding windows app to project?. I think that is the correct way. The available item templates relate to the project type, so we cannot add an item template which doesn?t belong to current project. For example, if current project is a Windows Form application, we cannot add a Web Form template in it. This is the by design behavior because they are totally different and no reason to contain them in one project.
About the confusing of solution file and project file, hope the following information is helpful to you:
Solutions are Visual Studio's highest level of organization. They collect any number of projects together under one manageable structure. Solutions store information about the contained projects, including project dependencies and build order.
Projects contain any number of source files that are compiled into some kind of output. The output could be a Windows Forms, console application, class library, Web Application, and so on.
Sincerely,
Benson Yu
