How can I use a WPF control inside a Windows Forms Panel control?

Question

Is it possible?

I'd like to use this control inside of a panel in my C# Winforms application. Any suggestions?

Is such a thing possible? I'm using .NET 3.5; thanks!

You need to add an ElementHost control to your winforms panel and put the WPF control in there. See here for more details: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/calvin_hsia/archive/2007/12/11/6740119.aspx

You're looking for the ElementHost control.
You'll need to make a WPF UserControl that wraps the control, then put it in an ElementHost.
