    Hi Kasthuri,

    All visual states of RadComboBox are the visual representation of the ButtonChrome control. If you edit RadComboBox template in Expression Blend, you can find the ButtonChrome control in it. Generate the style of the chrome and check in Blend, in the Resources tab on the right  all relevant brushes. You can modify any brush, including the highlight brush.

    I hope this will help.

    Best wishes,
    Dani

    Hi Kasthuri,

    Please, find attached a sample of a customized ButtonChrome in RadComboBox template. The default NonEditable template has been modified. Whatever changes you make upon that template, please remember you might need to apply them to the Editable template, as well.

    In the resources.png attached screenshot, you will see just where you can find all needed brushes of the generated ButtonChromeStyle. The customized_brushes.png shows a small illustrative change that was applied to that particular ButtonChromeStyle.

    I hope this will be helpful.

    Best wishes,

    Hello Kasthuri,

    To try to explain the customization process more clearly, I attach here a sample video I made. It shows how to change brushes using the project I initially posted here. It also shows how you can change the mouse over brush of the RadComboBoxItem.

    I hope the movie will be helpful.

    All the best,
    Dani

    Hi Kasthuri,

    If your RadComboBox is populated by data binding its ItemsSource property, then use the ItemContainerStyle to apply your customization to all RadComboBoxItems.

    I hope this helps.

    Kind regards,
