LOD Module 2 Missing setup components #156

Closed CentriqTraining closed 4 years ago

CentriqTraining commented 4 years ago

Not sure if you are in charge of LOD setup here as well as the instructions committed here.

In Labs on Demand, Module 2, Task 2: Plan the photo model class:

Starting in step 21, it has you create a WPF app. But in Visual Studio 2019 (which is included in the build) the install does not have Windows Desktop apps selected so it doesn't even show up as an option. Note: Visual Studio 2017 does have it available. They should be matched.

Starting in step 27, it has you create a new Class diagram, but Class diagram is not installed in either 2017 OR 2019 and the steps to add it are not obvious. This causes a massive delay that renders this lab unfruitful for most students to get anything of substance out of the work.

I've never been fond of this lab, but any improvements or changes to it should make it easier, not harder to get in and get it done.

Thanks.

Mike, If this is about Learn On Demand, report it to them directly and they will quickly take care of it. Open the lab, and in the Help tab click "Submit a Support Request". I have found them to be very responsive.
