Change the Icon Color of RadRating

[Anthony]

Hello,

Is it possible to change the color of the RadRating control?

For example we use an icon of ■. The empty icon appears gray, while the value appears white. Can this be changed?

Thanks.

Nevermind, figured it out.

For reference here's what I ended up with:
<!-- Obfuscated GP Margin -->
<telerik:RadRating x:Name="GPRadRating" IsReadOnly="True" RatingDisplayPrecision="Exact" AutoGeneratedItemsCount="{Binding Item.gpRatingCount}" Value="{Binding Item.ObfuscatedGPMargin, Mode=TwoWay}" FontSize="17" ValueChanged="GPRadRating_ValueChanged">
    <telerik:RadRating.EmptyIconContentTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <TextBlock Text="■" />
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </telerik:RadRating.EmptyIconContentTemplate>
    <telerik:RadRating.FilledIconContentTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <TextBlock x:Name="RadRatingFilledTextBlock" Text="■" Loaded="RadRatingFilledTextBlock_Loaded" />
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </telerik:RadRating.FilledIconContentTemplate>
</telerik:RadRating>

And here's a way to do it with code behind:

Set your RadRating (class) FilledIconContentTemplate or EmptyIconContentTemplate to = GetRadRatingIconTemplate(...)

private DataTemplate GetRadRatingFilledIconTemplate(string symbol, string color)
{
    string markup = "";

    markup = "<DataTemplate xmlns=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation\">";
    markup += "<StackPanel Orientation=\"Horizontal\">";
    markup += string.Format("<TextBlock Text=\"{0}\" Foreground=\"{1}\" />", symbol, color);
    markup += "</StackPanel>";
    markup += "</DataTemplate>";

    return (DataTemplate)XamlReader.Load(markup);
}

Example call:
radRating.FilledIconContentTemplate = GetRadRatingFilledIconTemplate("■", "red");
