RadPane opacity doesn't take effect

[Fernando]

Hi,

We are implementing a floating pane that needs to be slightly transparent when the mouse is not over it but when I set the opacity it doesn't seem to take any effect.

            <telerik:RadSplitContainer x:Name="floatingContainer" InitialPosition="FloatingOnly">
                <telerik:RadPaneGroup>
                    <telerik:RadPane x:Name="pane" IsFloating="False"  Header="MyView" CanDockInDocumentHost="False" CanUserPin="False" CanUserClose="True" CanFloat="True">
                        <vw:MyView x:Name="panel"/>
                    </telerik:RadPane>
                </telerik:RadPaneGroup>
            </telerik:RadSplitContainer>

no matter were I put it (RadSplitContainer, RadPaneGroup, RadPane) the floating panel won't apply the opacity. It will only do it if I apply the opacity to the Docking object, but that sets the opacity on all other RadPane objects, which we don't want.

Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?

Thanks

Hi Fernando,

The floating pane is actually a ToolWindow. To set the Opacity you will have to edit the template of the ToolWindow. You can find more information about styling the ToolWindow in this help article.

Hope this information helps.
