Could anyone please tell me from where I can find the zoom control in WPF extensions ?
I am using VS 2022. And my OS is Windows 10.

It seems that a relatively new class: SvgImageSource can only be used in UWP. Is there any way to use it in a WPF project and how?
Please take a look at this framework:
SharpVectors
The other way is to convert your SVG files to XAML path geometry and using them easily.
It will be possible to use any UWP XAML UI in WPF using XAML Islands. This is currently available as a preview using the WindowsXamlHost control which is part of the Windows Community Toolkit. Also note, that when using UWP controls in WPF apps, the app will then work only on Windows 10 client PCs.
we are trying to use an activex control from WPF to save a rewrite right now. Found this article , https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms742735(v=vs.100).aspx that refers to the Windows Forms Control Library Template. now I have Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and there is no such template. Googled and just found pages with no usable content. was wondering if I could be pointed to where this exist or is there an alternative?
The Windows Forms Control Library Template is a litte bit difficult to find. In my Visual Studio 2015 implementation I have it in the directory Visual C#\Windows\Classic Desktop. If you don't have this template, at least for Windows Forms you can also choose template Class Library and later change it in in such a way that you can use the Testcontainer when debugging your class library.
For how to achieve this see the post of Arnshea (6 upvotes) in this link A project with output type of class library cannot be started directly - with a startup exe. I have used his technique when I accidently used the wrong template when starting my projects.

I am setting up the project structure for a new greenfield application. Our initial release will only support a WPF client, but we want to eventually roll out Metro and Silverlight clients as well. I decided on the following:
Core Library - Portable class library targeting .NET for metro, .NET 4.5, SL4, Windows Phone 7.5
WPF Application - Targeting .NET 4.5
Our Model/ViewModel layer is defined in the Core Library, View defined in the WPF Application. I chose .NET 4.5 in order to support defining the viewmodel in the core library in a way that can be consumed by both WPF and Metro.
This works fine in the Visual Studio 11 Beta running on Windows 7 Pro. I have a working view that is data bound to the ViewModel defined in the Core Library. My problem is Blend. When I open the View in Blend, I get no designer. I suspect the problem here is support for WPF on .NET 4.5. I have tried Blend 4 and Blend for VS11 Beta.
Does anyone know how to get the designer working in Blend for WPF views as described above?
*Status as of 2012-05-10:
No combination of VS11 and Blend appear to support WPF 4.5.
Since Visual Studio 2012, Update 2, the preview version of Blend (Blend + Sketchflow Preview for VS2012) has been merged with into the vanilla "Blend for Visual Studio 2012". This means that there is now a single designer application for all XAML platforms:
With Blend (for Visual Studio 2012), you can design and build:
Windows Store apps
Windows Phone apps
Sketchflow prototypes
Microsoft Silverlight and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications
edit: At this time, there's no Blend support for WPF 4.5. Here's the relevant info:
You need to install Visual Studio 11 Beta (Ultimate, Premium, or Professional -- NOT Express since it lacks the Blend pieces you want) on a Windows 8 preview build. That's just how they decided to line things up. Even once you do this, you still won't have WPF support:
Please be aware that in the Visual Studio beta, the XAML authoring
support for Windows 8 is not quite at the same level of stability and
completeness yet as the HTML authoring support.

I want to use the AutoCompleteBox in my WPF application but i cannot find it in visual studio. I have VS 2010 ultimate. I just downloaded and installed WPFToolkit.msi and ran it. When i open VS i cannot find the control. Where can i find it? Do i have to reference it somehow? I also have the .dll but i dont know if i need to put that somewhere? Thank you.
The AutoComplete textbox is a componenet which is in the Preview Quality Band in the WPF Toolkit .So it is not available is visualstudio 2010.You need to download and install the Feb 2010 release of the WpfToolkit and follow the instructions from the below SO post
WPF: AutoComplete TextBox, ...again
Is there a Way I can display PDF Document within a WPF app? I was able to do on a Windows XP Box with Acrobat 8.x installed. But on windows 7 with Acrobat 9.x installed, those ActiveX controls are not available anymore... Is there an alternate control I should be looking for?
