Hello,

I am wondering if Telerik ComboBox or other controls could be customized to look similar to Google controls.

For instance, http://translate.google.com/ you can notice the fancy ComboBox, Tooltip, and Buttons.

If not, any idea what google uses from JavaScript/CSS libraries to accomplish and deliver such nice UI controls?

Finally, would it be possible for Telerik, to add a new Theme to the already existing set called "Google UI" ?

Thank you & regards,
Bilal

Hello Bilal,

You can achieve the fancy ComboBox by using the MegaDropDown mentioned in the demo Menu / Mega Drop-Down and you can use RadFormDecorator to style Buttons.For further information Check the following demo.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply.

I still find those controls by google much more fancier and appealing. The telerik ones didn't satisfy me. Is there a way to change their style to resemble those of Google?

Thanks

Hello Bil@L,

When you create a custom skin the changes made are visually shown in the editing area. When the skin is ready you could download it as zip archive.

Please refer to the following help article giving information how to work with the Visual Style Builder.
