area controllers can't find the view without hardcoding the path?

[williamsonjake]

hi there,

i've been using the lowercase-dashed-routes in a project for a while now and it works perfectly (thank you!).

we've just made a change to the project moving some code into an area. i've dropped in the code to XxxAreaRegistration.cs as:

context.Routes.Add("Customer_default", new LowercaseDashedRoute("Customer/{controller}/{action}/{id}", new RouteValueDictionary(new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }), new DashedRouteHandler()));

however, in my controllers i don't seem to be able to use:

return View(viewModel);

as it gives me 'The view 'Index' or its master was not found or no view engine supports the searched locations. The following locations were searched:'

i'm having to specify the path to the view:

return View("~/Areas/Customer/Views/Login/Index.cshtml", viewModel);

am i missing something?!

cheers,

jake
