Color inheritance

[macBlack]

Hi newb here,

I'm guessing most of you will answer this in a heartbeat for for us newbies?

I have a simple test app that has one div that has no style except "color:red" and I have a RadNumericTextBox with the label property set. I expected the RadNumericTextBox to inherit the style (color:red) from its parent being the div to get a red label, but instead the label is black.

I know I can specify a LabelCssClass and specify the color but this leads to a more complex css structure (ie. I want to use the style with different colors without duplicating the code).

I've even tried specifying a css class that enforces the "color:inherit" with no sucess:

CSS

.colInherit

{

color:inherit;

}

HTML

<div style="color:Red">

    <telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="RadTextBox1" runat="server" Label="Tester" LabelCssClass="colInherit" >
    </telerik:RadNumericTextBox >

</div>

Thanks in advance...

I've not tried this, but have you seen what happens if you set the skin on the RadTextBox to "Transparent"?

Hi stuart,

I don't have a transparent skin, I haven't specified one so I assumed it would be the default one. Wouldn't the skin affect affect the control and not the label?

You're right, I mis-read what it is you're trying to do.

Sorry.
