This document contains a detailed, step by step guide in creating C# WPF Addins for MicroStation and ORD.

The guide walks you through the following topics

• Downloading the SDK
• Using the Developers Shell
• Accessing Delivered Examples
• Debugging within MicroStation and/or projectwise
• Building project with bmake.
• Creating a C# WPF addin (non-dockable window)
• Creating a dockable window
• Creating a dockable toolbar
• Taking over the tool settings (making a custom tool)

While the SDK documentation had some good examples, it still took me some time to figure out how to set up everything. Hopefully this guide will help others.
