The type or namespace name 'MainViewModel' could not be found in the global namespace (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Current behavior

Getting error:

The type or namespace name 'MainViewModel' could not be found in the global namespace (are you missing an assembly reference?)

When creating a public property of the Type of the ViewModel (MVUX generated file) from the Page code behind.

Expected behavior

No response

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)

Using the default template, create an app and add a property of the type generated from the MVUX Model

public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
{
    public MainViewModel VM { get; } 

    public MainPage()
    {
        this.InitializeComponent();
    }
}

Workaround

using internal instead of public

public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
{
    internal MainViewModel VM { get; } 

    public MainPage()
    {
        this.InitializeComponent();
    }
}

Have had Similar issue, can you check on your workaround if it really not throws a NullReferenceException due to x: Bind to command for example?
