Could not load GestureEventArgs from System.Windows.Input

I have been searching for a solution but couldn't find any yet.

Situation is that I have a customcontrol that uses GestureEventArgs to apply some effect on the "Tap" event. The GestureEventArgs come out of the System.Windows.Input namespace. This is a WP7 (7.1) project by the way. If I use this control in an other WP7 (7.1) project my visual studio 2010 just crashes. No error or exception.

When I open the xaml file in Blend I get the following error:

TypeLoadException: Could not load type "System.Windows.Input.GestureEventArgs" from assembly "System.Windows.Input, version= 2.0.5.0, Culture = neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e"

The only cause that I see is that in the Microsoft.Phone.Controls namespace in my otherproject, also has a GestureEventArgs. But there isn't a complaint about ambiguity.

Anybody has been in this situation? A fix would be awesome!

I ran into this when I installed and referenced the Windows Phone Silverlight Toolkit. It adds a new GestureEventsArgs to System.Windows.Controls. I got around this by aliasing my using for System.Windows.Input

using input=System.Windows.Input;
