I've tried to combine the Telerik examples 'Dynamic RadMenu' with 'Switching themes at runtime'.
I've realized, that the subitems of the RadMenu do not change the theme (color) correctly.
I think that the ItemContainerStyle don't work correctly.
I've attached an example with two RadMenu.
First is created dynamically the second is static.
In the menu you can switch to different themes.
Please have look to the submenues (file). The color don't change.
I've also realized that also the size of the icons are displayed differently.

Hello Dirk,
Let me begin by saying that switching themes at runtime is only supported with the NoXaml version of the assemblies. When adding our products via NuGet packages, the ones that contain this version, do not have ".Xaml" at the end of their name. For example, the package that contains the NoXaml version of all of our assemblies, for the .NET 6 framework version is "Telerik.UI.for.Wpf.60".
Regarding the wrongly styled dynamic RadMenu control, when creating custom styles, they would have to be merged once the theme is changed. The custom RadMenuItem style could be defined in a ResourceDictionary and once the theme is changed, merge this ResourceDictionary. In addition, the Switching Custom Styles with Themes at Runtime article could prove useful in this regard.
I have modified the sample project, so, could you give it a try?

Thanks Stenly,
your solution is working in this demo.
But I have a probem using the 'no xaml' version in my solution.
I've created an other posting.
I'm not able to use PRISM 8 within Telerik with the 'no xaml' version:

PS: I'm evaluating if the Telerik controls are fitting our requirements:
- PRISM 8
- Dynamic themes
- Dynamic language switch (OK)
- Docking (Prism Regions) (OK)
Hello Dirk,
Since a solution has been found for the matter in the above-shared forum thread, may I presume that all of the inquiries regarding the RadDocking control have been resolved? If this is the case, I will mark my initial reply as an answer. However, if there are any further questions about this forum thread's topic, please shared them.

Hi Stanley,
my questions regarding RadMenu and RadWindow are resolved within this posting.
I've still found a problem regarding RadDocking without Xaml embedded controls.
I have prepared screenshots and examples in an other posting. Would be great if you have time to have a look.
I would also help to update all your examples to Prism 8
Regards Dirk
Hello Dirk,
I have provided an answer in this forum thread, regarding the RadDocking control. Could you give the proposed suggestions a try and let me know how it goes?
