Change NullText Color

[Ole]

Is it possible to change the color of the NullText for a RadTextBox control?  For example, I'd like to have the NullText show as red and then if text is entered, show that as black.

Thanks,
Ole

Hello Ole,

Thank you for contacting us.

In order to achieve your goal, you may have a look at the following code snippet:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radTextBox1.NullText = "Enter First name";
    this.radTextBox1.TextBoxElement.TextBoxItem.NullTextColor = Color.Red;
    this.radTextBox1.TextBoxElement.TextBoxItem.ForeColor = Color.Purple;
}

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions, I would be glad to help.

Hello How would you do it, if you change the border to red, and then return it to normal (RadTextBox.TextBoxElement.Border.ForeColor), regardless of the subject you are in, in my case I am in the Crystal theme, change the color of the border to red becomes super simple, but returning it to normal as the theme applies is complicated, some guide please. note: use vb.net

Hello, Danny,

Your question has already been answered in the other thread you have opened on the same topic. Please, see our answer there for more information.

We kindly ask you to use just one thread for a specific problem to contact us. Posting the same questions numerous times slows down our response time because we will need to review and address two or more tickets instead of one. Moreover, threads are handled according to license and time of posting, so if it is an urgent problem, we suggest you use a support ticket, which would be handled before a forum thread.

Thank you for your understanding.
