I am having trouble using the 2014.3 version, when I call the desing method both in my solution as in the examples, the error is occurring:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in Stimulsoft.Report.dll

Additional information: Assembly 'Stimulsoft.Report.Design' is not found!


Thank you !

Hello.

Did you remove previous assemblies from GAC?
Please, check if you have right version of the Stimulsoft.Report.Design assembly.

Thank you.

I removed all previous versions, the problem also occurs in the first installation.
Even after scoring the reference to be copied, it is not being found.

Hello.

Sorry, but we couldn't reproduce the issue.
Please, try to
1. Uninstall our product.
2. Search for Stimulsoft and remove all our assemblies.
3. Download the release from our site once again.
4. Install the release.

Thank you.

I have the same problem.
I cannot run neither samples bundled with installation and I can't see context specific context menu in design time ( Design report).
Do you have any suggestion ?

I completely uninstall Stimulsoft from GAC and computer, run the latest Stimulsoft-Reports-Net-2015.1.exe. Install proceeded without any error.
I have no clue what to do now.

I have VS 2013 Premium Update 4, Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

I have exactly the same problem with the latest version. I tried your suggestion without any success.
After install Stimulsoft appears in Toolbox, but when I use for instance stiReport and add it to Form, special context menu won't show on control.
I can't choose Design Report in design time.

Using VS 2013 Premium Update 4, W7 64bit

And check what assembly is used for StiReport.

Sometimes you can find there some previous versions of our assemblies.

Thank you.
