Details

In this tech note the WIndows.Forms.dll is being imported.
When importing client controls into the IDE you may be met with the following error.

This fails initially because a TreeView control already exists in the Galaxy.

To resolve this, go to Graphic Toolbox and locate the TreeView control in the Situational Awareness Library > Support tool set.

Export it as an .aaPKG file to have as a backup.

Now delete the TreeView control from the Support tool set

Select Yes in the Delete pop up

Once deleted, try to reimport the Client Control .dll.

Select Galaxy > Import > Client Control...

Navigate to the System.Windows.Forms.dll select open

Keep the default import options

The Import should now complete successfully.

The Client Controls should now be visible in the Graphic Toolbox
