Hi,

We currently store our visual theme files separately as xml files (per control) instead of the tssp package file. This allows us to have a more detailed source control over the changes in each control, merging between branches is easier, etc.

Using a manual process, we open the Visual Style Builder, load the complete folder with the given xmls, and save the theme as a package. We then later on, copy the file to our application, and publish it.

We would like to automate the process of generating the tssp package given the xml files either by some tool from Telerik (if it exists), or by using any API available.

Is this possible? if not, can you please suggest an alternative solution?

Thank you.

Hi:

I have a Winforms application that I recently update the Telerik controls to 2023.1.117.40.

I am now unable to build as I am getting the following error:

'Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.WinControls.Themes.Crystal, Version=2023.1.117.40, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=bf4391287131aaeb' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)'

Am I missing a required Telerik library in my references?

Here are the libraries I am currently referencing:

Hi,

default behavior when creating a new WinForms project is that this setting is generated in app.config:

<appSettings>
    <add key="TelerikWinFormsThemeName" value="VisualStudio2022Light" />
  </appSettings>

Since I am using .net 6 and appsettings.json, I would love to eliminate app.config entirely.

Is there a way to move this setting to appsettings.json or implement it in code globally (without adding the code in every form or user control) and still maintain the design time functionality?

regards,
Darko

Hello Telerik,

 

Sorry, is it possible to create something like (I'm not really sure what it calls) flow or line with nodes or checkpoint ? Maybe like this image

 

Or like, if we played an adventure game, an on that game there was a map that shows where we were and what was the next quest or city, or anything.


Thanks before.

Hello, it's me.

I'm modifying the Fluent theme. The button and other controls that use some of the same elements (e.g. the scroll "thumb") has a sort of "glow" with the mouse cursor along with border highlight and a white ring when pressed. Where can I change this? I removed pretty much every repository item for all elements/states besides text and fill but it's still there:

I am looking for someone for a short contract to help me with designing a custom theme for use in a client application. My client has given me a detailed rendering of their desired design for a winforms app to run in kiosk mode. This will involve custom buttons, font choices, etc.  I would like to outsource this effort to a developer who has experience with the custom theme designer. I have some experience with it myself, so I know it can be intricate work to make it all perfect.

Hi folks.  This will be a silly one for those of you who know but it's got me baffled.

I'm editing a Theme and need to adjust the tab's displayed at the top of a RadPageView.  I expected to see RadPageViewPage in Visual Style Builder and found RadPageView easily enough but the UI for RadPageViewPage eludes me.

Does anyone know where I can find this in Visual Style Builder?  Perhaps its an inherited control called something else?

Cheers!

Hello community!!!

I am trying to get the "ForeColor" value of a "RadButton" but when it is in "MouseOver" state. Any idea how can I do that?
As you can see in my screenshot, into "Visual Style Builder" I found the "HighlightedForeColor" key for the "MouseOver" state but I don't know how to get this value into my code like I do to the example below for this "RadButton".
        public static Color RGB_Color()
        {
            RadButton Rad_Button = new RadButton();

            RadForm Rad_Form = new RadForm();
            Rad_Form.Controls.Add(Rad_Button);
            Rad_Form.ThemeName = "Office2019Dark";

            Color forecolor = new Color();
            forecolor = Rad_Button.ForeColor;

            Debug.WriteLine("The forecolor is : " + forecolor);
            return forecolor;
        }
Thank you for your time!!!

Hello.
I am studying using the trial version to apply Telrik UI for Winform to my project.
I've tried various things to apply the theme, but only the fluent theme doesn't work. The fluent dark theme or other themes will work just fine.
All versions are 2022.2.622.40.

And, there are always two versions, 2022.2.622.20 and 2022.2.622.40, but I did not install version 20. May I know why?
(I'm using Fiddler.)

 

Thank you.

BooKyung Oh.

We have a WinForms application with WPF Controls embedded in it and various WPF applications. All applications use Telerik controls. I am looking into re-theming them. I can't find any information to easily compare themes. I've seen that there is an Office2019 theme in both WinForms and WPF. Are there any comparisons of them anywhere? Are there any combinations of WinForms and WPF themes that go well together without much alteration?
