I have a follow-up question on this topic. I managed to dynamic
load an xaml this way, however getting references of elements in the loaded xaml by name fails.
To clarify see the next files:
The container xaml
<UserControl

xmlns:noesis="clr-namespace:NoesisGUIExtensions" >
<Border x:Name="container" />
</UserControl>
<UserControl

<Grid x:Name="mainGrid">

<Button x:Name="Button1" Content="Button1" />
<Button x:Name="Button2" Content="Button2" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Border>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
public void Start()
{
var loaded = NoesisGUISystem.LoadXaml<UserControl>("Assets/PressIt.GUI/Test1.xaml");
gui = FindObjectOfType<NoesisGUIPanel>();
var root = gui.GetRoot<FrameworkElement>();
var container = root.FindName<Border>("container");
container.SetChild(loaded);
container.SetVisibility(Visibility.Visible);
button1= container.FindName<Button>("Button1");
button2 = container.FindName<Button>("Button2");
button1.Click += OnButton1Click; //<=== NULL reference exception
button2.Click += OnButton2Click;
}
The button1 and button2 variables are null, meaning that the FindName<Button>("...") failed. Note that the xaml works perfectly if I
load the xaml statically in NoesisGUIPanel.
Any ideas?
