Errors in using VJE src in Visual Studio 2017 Community #24

Hi, I downloaded your latest source as I wanted to see if an enhancement was possible. I notice no changes for quite a while. First there were unloaded NuGet packages. Reloaded them. 5 packages were back level, but initially I did not update them. Next, the WPF designer would not load MainWiIndow because of several errors for which I cannot see the reason. Same result after I updated the back-level NuGet packages. I just wanted to see what is involved in turning the Schema property descriptions into a multiline word-wrapped text field. As an alternative, or as well, I would like to show any Schema (v7) $comment fields in your GUI. I use quite a few json files to configure a complex application. Using VJE has been a great help to our consultants already. I would like to improve its self-documentation in the Schema to get rid of most external documentation, as well as its value in validation and field xrefs..

You need to work with the xaml directly as the designer is not working with the views

Thanks for the response. I will look at doing that later when I have time.
