    How do I load a macropartial view from within a package?

    Razor
    Umbraco 7

    Hi, I have a sitenavigation macropartial which works fine on my main masterpage. I have a package installed within app_plugins\package\ and within that folder I have a masterpage for my package that I've installed.

    What I want to do is render the macropartial which is stored in \views\macropartials\siteNav.cshtml in my masterpage within app_plugins\package\themes\mytheme\views\master.cshtml

    When I type 

    @Umbraco.RenderMacro("siteNav")

    I get an error : The type or namespace name 'RenderMacro' does not exist in namespace 'Umbraco'

    I tried adding

    @model Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

    but then I am told I can only have one model per page.

    Any help would be great, Thanks,

    Maybe try :

    @umbraco.library.RenderMacro("siteNav")

    Hope this helps

    Cheers.

    Thanks but RenderMacro gives an error 'umbraco.library' does not contain a definition for 'RenderMacro'

    Can anyone else offer a suggestion on how to call my global navigation partial from within a package?

    Thanks,
