Hi,
thanks but it doesn't help me . I want to give styles to radTabItem,as like the image I attached previously. 
I try in the following way:
<telerikNavigation:RadTabControl Height="268" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Style="{StaticResource TabControlStyle1}" >
   <telerikNavigation:RadTabItem  Header="Properties"  Style="{StaticResource TabItemStyle1}"/>
</telerikNavigation:RadTabControl>


But It does,t show anything. What to do?
