Integrating WPF forms and normal C# forms

Question

For a project I decided to use Dynamic Data Display to generate charts (more specifically: heat maps) of certain data.

Now for as far as I could read (and see from the demos) Dynamic Data Display uses WPF forms.

I have no experience whatsoever with WPF, but I was wondering if it is possible to integrate Dynamic Data Display in a normal windows forms project (even if this means "mixing" Dynamic Data Display's WPF forms with my project's normal windows forms).

Thanks in advance!

You will need to use System.Windows.Forms.Integration.ElementHost control in your Windows Forms project, more information on how to use ElementHost to host WPF forms inside Windows Forms is at:
