In this article, you will find information about the styling options and rendering of the Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC TextBox.
For a live example, refer to the Appearance Demo of the TextBox.
Options

Size()—configures the overall size of the component.FillMode()—defines how the color is applied to the component.Rounded()—specifies the border radius of the component.
Size
The Size() method controls the size of the rendered TextBox.
The example below demonstrates how to adjust the Size of the component:
@(Html.Kendo().TextBox()
.Name("textbox")
.Size(ComponentSize.Medium)
)The following values are available for the Size option:
SmallMediumLarge
When not explicitly set, the applied theme controls the default size.
The
Nonevalue is deprecated. Use custom CSS instead.

Rendering
Starting with version R1 2022, the component has a new rendering. For additional information on the decision behind these changes, visit the Components Rendering Overview article.
To review the latest rendering of the component, refer to the HTML specifications in the Kendo UI Themes Monorepo. The tests folder of the repository contains the rendering for all flavors of the components, providing a clear reference for how their elements are structured. The rendering information can help you customize a component's appearance and behavior by applying custom CSS or JavaScript to suit specific design or functional requirements.
