I think my basic issue is that I have no idea how the RadFormDecorator is supposed to do its magic. It's a little black box that is supposed to do neat things but when it doesn't work we're sort stuck in the cold. I'd like to find documentation that explains for v2009.2.701.20 exactly how RadFormDecorator customizes the styles for specific controls for specific browsers. The problem I keep having is that various controls don't render properly and I feel I have no control over them. I don't like feeling helpless when it comes to code.
"How about an example" you ask?
Please go to http://drop.io/TonyGFiles and download a PDF called "Telerik Group Rendering.pdf". (Anyone have a better idea for making files and/or images available in this forum?) That document has screen shots and code that show how FieldSets and ASP Panels render with and without RadFormDecorator. Perhaps with this as a base we can see what it will take to style a group box, and that information may translate to other controls.
If the solution is to simply not use the RadFormDecorator, I can do that, and use custom CSS to style various controls. But that seems a waste when here is a component designed to do this very thing. I'd prefer that out of this discussion we'll get some better documentation and/or fixes to the component.
Thanks for your time.
