Where should I start from? And an obsolete content report

First of all, thank you very very much for your toolkit! It would be really helpful for there are very little resources about SharpDX on UWP.

I would like to know how to use this toolkit, which function should I call first from my XAML page? I have tried Viewport3DX() (constructor), but it didn’t raise the event Loaded, and certainly I can’t raise it myself.

And I report the DisplayProperties class used in the Viewport3DXLoaded method is obsolete now. VS2015 suggest it should be replaced by DisplayInformation, and it seems to be requiring an instantiation.

I think you need to use x:Name instead of Name in the XAML file to be able to reference it in the code-behind file. http://stackoverflow.com/a/1128660/2252268 https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/ms752290(v=vs.110).aspx It seems Name is just a property of the super-class FrameworkElement.

I think this should be helpful https://github.com/helix-toolkit/helix-toolkit/wiki/Getting-started-with-WPF-3D.

The way I used to create scene was kind of mixed approach. I defined the Viewport in XAML and specified all it’s properties, but the scene itself was created in code. To do this, you need to get reference of Viewport that is already defined in XAML, not construct a new one. One of the ways to do this is to give a name to the Viewport <hx:Viewport3DX Name="ViewportDx" ... and then get reference to it in code, var hVpDx = FindName("ViewportDx") as Viewport3DX;. You can do this in .cs file of XAML (e.g MainWindow.xaml has MainWindow.xaml.cs) and continue on building the scene as described in tutorial.
