Dependencies
Silverlight Elements requires Silverlight 4.
Some features of Silverlight Elements depend on non-core Silverlight components such as the Silverlight Toolkit. In particular, the MulticolumnTreeView control requires the System.Windows.Controls.Toolkit DLL from the April 2010 Silverlight Toolkit. This can be obtained from CodePlex or is included in the Silverlight Elements installation directory.
