Disable highlighting of the last selected button

[Dominik]

Hi

Is there a way to disable the highlighting of the last selected button?

With:

        private void button_changebackcolor(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            if(((Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadButton)sender).BackColor != System.Drawing.Color.White)
            {
                ((Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadButton)sender).BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;
            }
        }

it's possible, but that makes problem with my real program, because sometimes I need to highlight a button with yellow and button_changebackcolor overrrides that.

 

Thank you in Advance

Kind Regards,

Dominik

Hello Dominik,

The back color in MaterialBlueGrey theme indicates that the button is focused and if the user presses the enter or space keys, the button will be clicked.
There are two options to remove this focus back color:

1. Prevent the button from gaining focus by setting its Focusable and TabStop properties to false:
   

   this.radButton1.Focusable = false;
   this.radButton1.TabStop = false;

2. Override the settings of the theme using ThemeValueOverride(IsDefault state indicates that the button has focus):
   

   this.radButton1.ButtonElement.SetThemeValueOverride(FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, Color.White, "IsDefault", typeof(FillPrimitive));
   this.radButton1.ButtonElement.SetThemeValueOverride(FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, Color.FromArgb(236, 236, 236), "IsDefault.MouseOver", typeof(FillPrimitive));
   this.radButton1.ButtonElement.SetThemeValueOverride(FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, Color.FromArgb(224, 224, 224), "IsDefault.Pressed", typeof(FillPrimitive));

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to ask.
