XAML Designer not showing up


Tools>Option>XAML Designer and enable XAML Designer worked for me. enter image description here

XML designer can be disabled by Resharper in Resharper > Options > Performance Guide
I fixed my problem by turning off Resharper block, and restoring XML designer in Tools > Options

I am using Microsoft VS Community 2015 (final update)
