Default style when created in Blend uses office_black brushes

[dxk240]

Hi,
I'm trying to change the style of the gridview header. In Blend I go to Edit additional templates -> Edit headerrowstyle -> edit a copy. When I do this Blend automatically extracts brushes from the office_black theme thus overriding my applications' theme, which is set to Metro. Is there a way to tell Blend that I am interested in modifying the style of the current Metro theme?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Dragan,

 


When you predefine the template of a control (or any of its parts) you are predefining against the default Office_Black theme. If you want to modify the template for Metro theme you should add the specific style to your project and manipulate it in the way you need.  We ship our themes as separate projects and you may access the XAML files for all Telerik themes from the Themes folder of your personal installation.  
Hope this helps!    
 

Kind regards,

Thank you for your reply, after some research that is what I discovered on Friday as well.
