Compile error in VS2015 .net 3.5

edited 9:18AM in FastReport .NET
Hello,

we use FastReport.net 2015.3.1.0 in Visual Studio 2008 project. Project is under .net 3.5 fw and all work well. We are planning upgrade to Visual Studio 2015, but in first step we would like to use .net 3.5 in VS2015.

I tried to convert project from VS2008 to VS2015. Conversion was done without problems, but I can't compile project. VS2015 show this errors:

All work well, if I update project to .net 4.0.

Its possible to use FastReport in VS2015 under .net 3.5? Why do all work in VS2008 and in VS2015 not?

Thanks for your answer.

BR,
Jakub.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
