title: Why is the Silverlight framerate not showing up in my status bar?
body: <p>I'm trying to see the framerate of a silverlight application. I'm using IE 8 and have created a new Silverlight app in Visual Studio and simply added a button and set a background color. I've tried it on a more complex app and had no success, so that's why I'm using the most basic of examples.</p>
  
  <p>I've added <code>&lt;param name="EnableFrameRateCounter" value="true" /&gt;</code> to the object tag, and enabled <strong>Allow status bar updates via script</strong> as documented in the note on <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc838171%28v=vs.95%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">MSDN</a>. I've tried it with and without debugging. If I enable <code>EnableGPUAcceleration</code> I do get the status text from that but it's not what I'm looking for.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
