    Hello Arul S V,

    The latest version of Visual Style Builder actually includes an option that allows you to save several XML files as a single package (see attached screenshot). Once doing so, you can easily load this package into you application using the ThemeResolutionService.

    ThemeResolutionService.LoadPackageFile("Desert.tssp"); 
    ThemeResolutionService.ApplicationThemeName = "Desert";

    Thanks for your reply.

    Customer wants in the xml file format. Where they can edit the theme without VSB.

    Any way i wrote a piece of code which will be converting all my xml theme files into a single xml theme file.

    Format:-

     

     

     

     

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <XmlTheme xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" ThemeName="AliasDesert" ThemeVersion="2.0"> 

    <StyleRepository>
     <RepositoryItems>
     </RepositoryItems>
    </StyleRepository>
    <BuilderRegistrations>
     <XmlStyleBuilderRegistration> RadTextBox
     </XmlStyleBuilderRegistration>
     <XmlStyleBuilderRegistration> RadButton
     </XmlStyleBuilderRegistration>
    </BuilderRegistrations>
    </XmlTheme> 

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Thanks.
