Hi all,

I am trying to apply a "Layout" to an MVC View called from an Umbraco Surface Controller. But when I add the following to be beginning of the file:

@{
Layout = "TTMaster.cshtml";
}

I get the following exception error:

    The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 'MyProject.Models.TT_ViewProfile.ViewProfileViewModel', 
but this dictionary requires a model item of 
type 'Umbraco.Web.Models.RenderModel'.

My Controller calls the view with this:

        return View("ViewProfile", viewProfileViewModel);

and below is the source for the View. Any help would be appreciated.
