5 years ago Just to be sure - are you adding via the content manager UI tool, like in this pic:
If so its a bug with MonoGame, out of curiosity I just tried adding an empty file with .dll extension and it worked, so it doesn't do any validations or anything that could be related to GeonBit.UI.
I suggest asking here: http://community.monogame.net/
And if your path contains spaces you can try just as a test to use a path with no spaces or add a different dll, sometimes paths with spaces cause problems in random stuff..
If you think it is in GeonBit please reopen issue.
Thanks :)
Not sure if this is a GeonBit.UI issue or a Monogame issue.
When trying to add the a reference to DataTypes.dll to the Content Pipeline tool, it crashes the tool and fails to add the reference.
Steps to reproduce:

Version info:
Visual Studio Enterprise 15.9.3 Monogame 3.6 GeonBit.UI 3.3.0 (added by Nuget)
I tried adding the dll from the lib folder that came with the nuget and also tried downloading the github source and building it from the project. Both resulted in a similar error.
