ok, I spoke to some coworkers. They all worked with visual Studio. I didn't find any other possibility to preview the templates of the Task Card creator

Are you talking about the report templates?! Those seem to be designed in xaml form. Should be pretty easy to customize them.

Hi,
yes I was talking about them... but yyou always have to load the xaml in the creator to see, if the changes are ok. There is no preview. I thought there would be a possibility without VS and without reloading the creator after every Change
Kind regards
