TouchKeyboard seems to depend on UWP

[ite-klass]

This repository is for WPF samples, but the TouchKeyboard example project seems to depend on UWP namespaces.

TouchKeyboardEventManager.cs imports Windows.Foundation and Windows.UI.ViewManagement.

The project does not compile for me even with the Windows SDK and VS 2022 UWP workflow installed due to the unknown namespaces. 7 references of the project do not resolve.

What am I missing?

Hey @ite-klass look at issue #417 . You need to modify the path to point at Windows.winmd from your system for the application to work.

The README says

If you have not installed it to its default location in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10", you will have to update the reference to Windows.winmd in the project file to point to your installed SDK directory.

I expected the VS installer to install it under default locations. Is that not the case?

I do not have a file at C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\UnionMetadata\Windows.winmd, but do for example at C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\UnionMetadata\10.0.19041.0\Windows.winmd.

I have 9 Windows.winmd files of various size under C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\ overall.

Adding the reference to the two csproj files changes nothing about the type not being found errors.

      <HintPath>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\UnionMetadata\10.0.19041.0\Windows.winmd</HintPath>
    </Reference>
