How to open a WPF project using Blend in Visual Studio 2012?

I am using Visual Studio 2012 Professional Edition and have a WPF project.

I would like to open my WPF project using Blend, but the option does not exist in my visual studio.

Should I install Blend separately? How can I make a parameter visible and enable it?

when you right-click on the project there is an option "Open for mixing".

You can initiate a new instance of blend 2012 and open the corresponding project in this. This is a very easy way .. does it not work?

I had the same exact issue using VS2013 Ultimate SP2.

It seems that this only works when it is a Silverlight project, but as soon as you open Blend for Visual Studio, you can go to File -> Open Project/Solution... and select the project you want to create using Blend.

As far as I know, this is the only way to open Blend without looking at VS 2012/2013 program folders. I tried it several times with WPF (even by right-clicking on certain XAML files) without success.

Perhaps this has been fixed, so I will update VS2013 to the latest version (SP3) and update this answer with my findings.
