Re: Once again - Object of type x...

It's probably compiling your code for design-time use and trying to pass
one build version of GraphConfiguration to an "older" function that
accepts and "older" build of GraphConfiguration (or vice versa).
Is the usercontrol in a separate library to the GraphConfiguration
class?
If not, try to separate them into separate libraries - it should mean
that only one build version of the class exists

However...do you need to use the class while in the designer?
If not, start the user controls OnLoad, painting, etc routines with code
like this:

if (this.DesignMode)
        return;

(Note: this.DesignMode only returns sensible results after the window
has been instantiated, so will not work in the ctor for example)

Then you'll never have problems, because it's not running code that was
only designed for use at runtime.

Hope that helps
Chris
