Why does my colour picker look like a FONT colour picker?

[Kareema]

Is there a way to style my RadColorPicker to get rid of the glyph of the little "A" in the expander? Look at the file I attached. I'm not using it to change the colour of a font. This is confusing my user. I just want a block that has the selected colour in it.

Hi Kareema,

Please examine the attached project and let me know if you need further assistance.

Hi Kiril,

Thank you for your reply. You attached a Silverlight Application. Strange, seeing as how this was posted under WPF :)
Any way, I copied your entire ColorButtonDefaultStyle style, pasted it in my own solution and referenced it as static resources for all my own instances of RadColorPicker.
ie.

<Controls:RadColorPicker x:Name="FocusedRowForegroundColour"
ColorButtonStyle="{StaticResource ColorButtonDefaultStyle}" />

This seems to have had no effect on the picker's appearance. Something to do with the fact that it was meant for a Silverlight component as opposed to a WPF component?

Awaiting your reply
Thanks

Hello Kareema,

The style I provided you with is the default one. You need to modify that style to see  any changes. I've attached an updated WPF version of the previous project. Could you please take a look at it and let me know how it goes.

Thanks for clearing that up, Kiril.
I modified the style and it looks perfect.

Now that ColorButtonStyle is marked as "Obsolete", can you show how to do this using SplitButtonStyle instead? I wasn't able to find an example of using SplitButtonStyle, and haven't been able to figure out how to get at the ButtonPart in the Grid.

Thanks,
Louis

Hi Louis,

 Please check out the Backwards Compatibility section in our documentation which describes how to upgrade your ButtonStyles and use the SplitButtonStyle.
