Hi, I want to use a WPF legacy control in MAUI / WinUI3, for example this control. The library developer does not support WinUI. Is there any possibility to use existing WPF controls? thank you. |

I believe it's technically should be possible to create control handle, aka island, inside of WinUI application, and render there wpf content. Like reversed Xaml Islands. It won't be easy though. |

Hi @anaselhajjaji, that is not supported yet. Using WPF controls in WinUI 3 is enabled through a feature called "XAML Islands", which is currently planned for a future update after 1.0. You can see the WinUI 3 roadmap here: https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/blob/main/docs/roadmap.md#legend |
