Calendar with Office 2013 theme

[Alex R.]

My calendar, see attached image, when setting the theme to Office 2013 loses some of the key styling.  The days seem to be missing, selected range doesn't show any highlighting, and the current day is not formatting the day fore color.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

<UserControl.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <telerik:BooleanToVisibilityConverter x:Key="BooleanToVisibilityConverter" />

        <DataTemplate x:Name="cFontTemplate"
                  x:Key="cFontTemplateKey">
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Text}"
                   Foreground="Black"
                   FontWeight="ExtraBold" />
        </DataTemplate>
        <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/System.Windows.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Docking.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.RibbonView.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Chart.xaml"/>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.xaml"/>
        </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
    </ResourceDictionary>
</UserControl.Resources>

I am also having the same issue with the ribbon view

As a side note this is a user control, not wpf application.

Hi Alex,

The problem with missing brushes and visual states comes from the fact that Palettes ResourceDictionaries doesn’t get initialized when implicit styles are added as resources in Window.Resources or UserControl.Resources collection.

To make this work when you are merging the implicit style files locally, you’ll have to initialize the corresponding theme ResourceDictionary in App.xaml for example:

<Application.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
            <telerik:Office2013ResourceDictionary />
        </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
    </ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>

Another solution is to merge ResourceDictionaries in code behind like in the attached sample project.

I hope this will be helpful.

Hello Masha,

For this particular instance there is no WPF Application to set the application resources.  My main application is written in C++ and wraps the WPF User Control to display as a native widow. 

I have submitted a ticket as well with more details of my issue, including the C++ code launching the window.
