  Hi
  
  RadComboBox has RadCheckBoxElement Items. How can I set backcolor of each item. I try like this:
  
  

  For i As Int16 = 0 To 5          
    Dim citem As New RadCheckBoxElement        
    citem.Text = "Text"        
    citem.BackColor = Color.Blue  'set backcolor to blue, but nothing happens         
    RadComboBox1.Items.Add(citem)
Next

  
  
  But items backcolor remains unchanged.

  Hello Dejo,
  
  Thank you for your question.
  
  The RadCheckBoxElement will paint its BackColor when its property ShouldPaint is defined as 'True'. It is 'False' by default which provides better performance.
  
  I hope it helps.
