For Silverlight 4 did TemplatedControl replace UserControl? Because when I goto add a new item in Visual Studio 2010 that is the only thing that closely resembles a user control in the dialog?
No, they should both be there, are you sure the silverlight tools for visual studio 2010 are installed correctly?

I can't create a new ASP.NET Web Project via template. Clicking on "OK" crashes VS 2013 or shows the error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
I'm using MS Windows 8.1 + Visual Studio 2013 Premium Update 3.
Extensions I am using:
.NET Reflector Pro
Brace Completer
Visual Power Tools
Web Essentials 2013 for Update 3
Maybe someone knows whats going on? I am running VS 2013 as admin. :(
I tried disabling all Extension, doesn't help.
It's a fresh install from MSDN.
Edit:
I just recognized that the templates show up, when I choose a .NET framework below 4.5:

EDIT 2:
Okay, reinstalling didn't help. I also uninstalled everything .NET related.
Okay I found the Problem.
in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies are three assemblies that prevent VS 2013 from showing up the assemblies. See this Question/Answer:
Can't create new MVC5 project or any other ASP .NET projects in Visual Studio 2013
For some reason Visual Studio is showing me this weird, ugly skeleton design view when I try building Mango apps instead of the regular fully detailed view I used to get with the old 7.0 apps.
Any idea what setting I need to change to revert back to the old view? I've spent forever searching for the right option but can't find it anywhere.
Here's what my design view currently looks like:
Thanks,

I had the same problems few weeks ago. Normally an uninstallation would not really help. I guess you also have installed the Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1. So to solve your problem, uninstall all of your Visual Studio and Windows Phone Related Products, normally these are:
Visual Studio 2010 (or Express)
Visual Sudio 2010 SP1
Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0 Refresh
After uninstallation install all products in the following order:
1) Visual Studio 2010 (or Express)
2) Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0 Refresh
and after (1) and (2) install and apply the Visual Studio 2010 - Service Pack 1.
Thre problem is, that if you install the SP1 before the Game Studio, there are some missing links and files which are not patched and this leads to the missfunctionality of the Windows Phone Designer.
I hope, i was able to help you :)
I use Visual Studio 2010, and I recently installed Silverlight 4 Toolkit. However I still can't access TimePicker. System.Windows.Control is in the Solution Reference, and it also doesn't show the new Silverlight controls. In the VS 2010 installation directory, I can see Silverlight 4 (and 3). Where am I doing wrong?
Are you referencing System.Windows.Controls.Input? Also, if your not already, toolkit can be installed with nuget.
I've just successfully installed Silverlight 4 tools for visual studio 2010. But I can't see any Silverlight tab in the tools box. Is there any configuration I need to proceed to.
Thanks for helping.
Try creating a new project in C# or VB. you should see an option to create a silverlight project and you will then be able to see the new controls in the toolbox.
Edit:
It looks like you go about it in a different way. Try creating a Silverlight application then select type as ASP.NET-MVC
In Visual Studio 2010 you can drag tabs out to separate windows but you can not collect them together as additional tabbed elements. Is there a VS 2010 add-on to allow you to group your extra windows into tabs? It would be really nice to have a set of tabs on each of my monitors.
The best place to look is the Visual Studio Gallery for 2010 Extensions. If you are lucky someone else has already had the idea and created an extension (VSIX) for you.
Otherwise, why do you have a go at writing it yourself by grabbing a copy of the Visual Studio 2010 SDK and read the Getting Started Guide.
UPDATE: I just stumbled on this awesome Visual Studio Extension that may do want you are looking for: Visual Studio 2010 Pro Power Tools.

Productivity Power Tools does it, and it's free. The feature is called Document Well.
