Visual studio do not add my Component (from a dll) to the toolbox even if I reference it

customcomponents

As stated in the title, I copied my dll in visual studio project, set it to "content" and "copy always". Added a reference to this dll and set it to "copy locally".

I successfully managed to instance my component to a form through code but it doesn't appear in the toolbox, really boring.

How can I solve this issue?

If I link directly the dll project to this project it works, but now I'm treating the dll as "external" so it's not part of the same solution of the dll project.

Thanks for any help
