Changing the back ground Color of Button

[A2H]

Hi,

I want to change the background color of Rad Button.I want to achieve this through code with out changing or creating any customized skins.

My requirement is to give button back ground as Green color.
Unfortunately Forest "skin" doesn't match with my design and when I applied "Hay" skin button is appearing in light green color.

I want to give solid green back ground to my Rad button.

Please help me its very urgent.

Thanks,
A2H

Hi,

With reference to this forum thread it is not possible to set different color. One suggestion is that you can use ButtonType="LinkButton" and can set the BackColor of the RadButton as follows.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadButton ID="RadButton1" ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Button" runat="server">
</telerik:RadButton>

C#:

RadButton1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green;

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Shinu.

I thought you had to do it this way

((FillPrimitive)radButton1.ButtonElement.GetChildrenByType(typeof(FillPrimitive))[0]).GradientStyle = Telerik.WinControls.GradientStyles.Solid;

Hi Marianne,

It appears that you are referring to the RadControls for WinForms. This forum thread is related to the RadButton control, which is a part of the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite.

Kind regards,

Hi All,

Thanks For your help.

I have acheived it by creating a Custom Skin for the button.
