Awesome.Content attached property does not support converting from string #26

XAML Designer fails to render buttons with Awesome.Content attached property. It compiles fine. VS14.0.24720.00 Update 1 / .NET 4.6.01038

PS: TextElement.FontFamily is in the resource dictionary. image

did you see this comment?

I think this could be solved by providing a TypeConverter for the enum. i.e. [TypeConverter(typeof(FontAwesomeStringConverter))]

would be cool to have better vs designer support - will have a look into the problem

Am I supposed to override something with this?

Hmm strange, just tried out the demo project with visual studio 2015 (same build and .net version) and did not receive the error messages you describe. do you have any special project settings set? (warning level etc?)

I've installed VS recently and haven't touched the default settings.
