[rmarinho]

Oh nice!

[rmarinho]

well is not on preview 1.4 :(

[castorix]

It is in 1.4 (I tested in WinForms/C# on Windows 10 22H2 and it works correctly)

[rmarinho]

Nice, yeah seems so from 1.4 release notes but in a for I wasn't expecting.
do you have an example @castorix ? Seems it's low level API available right?
Thanks

I mainly just tested DesktopWindowXamlSource with Content and Initialize to associate the XAML window with the Form handle (in this thread)
(also Microsoft.UI.Content.* like Microsoft.UI.Content.ContentExternalOutputLink but for the reverse (Win32 control drawn in WinUI 3))
But the doc needs to be improved for more complex samples

Closing this question as XAML Islands are out of experimental in 1.4 and are available for C++ apps, per the release notes.
