CommandBarToggleButton and SetThemeValueOverride

[Guy]

I am trying to override the background theme colour for a CommandBarToggleButton (in default visual state ie untoggled). Below is what I have (but not working) - help appreciated!

CommandBarToggleButton button = new ...

button.SetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, Color.LightGreen, "", typeof(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive));

button.SetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.GradientStyleProperty, GradientStyles.Solid, "", typeof(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive));

Hi Guy,

There is no need to specify the type in this case. You can use the following code (the button is inheriting LightVisualElement):

commandBarToggleButton1.SetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, Color.Red, "" );
commandBarToggleButton1.SetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.GradientStyleProperty, GradientStyles.Solid, "" );

I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.
