Removing the "selected" colors and borders for a RadTreeViewItem

[Josh Gough]

Hello,

One thing we'd like to do is to not retain any highlighted background color or borders around the RadTreeViewItem when the user clicks it.
I've seen the information here about replacing the default style:

This seems like overkill to have to do all this in blend just to change a few brushes.

Is there any way to do this through code dynamically or in Visual Studio at least?

Thank you,
Josh

I solved this in a differentish way:

        Dictionary<MenuItemNode, RadTreeViewItem> _radTreeViewItems = new Dictionary<MenuItemNode, RadTreeViewItem>();
        void MenuItemPrepared(object sender, RadTreeViewItemPreparedEventArgs e) {
            var menuItemNode = e.PreparedItem.DataContext as MenuItemNode;
            if (menuItemNode != null) {
                e.PreparedItem.IsExpanded = menuItemNode.IsExpanded;
                _radTreeViewItems[menuItemNode] = e.PreparedItem;
            }
        }

        private void MenuItemClicked(object sender, RadRoutedEventArgs e) {
            if (sender is RadTreeView) {
                var menu = sender as RadTreeView;
                if (menu.SelectedItem is MenuItemNode) {
                    var menuItem = menu.SelectedItem as MenuItemNode;
                    var treeViewItem = _radTreeViewItems[menuItem];
                    treeViewItem.IsSelected = false;
                    if (menuItem.NavigateAction != null) {
                        menuItem.NavigateAction();
                    }
                }
            }
        }
