How can I localize the Clear Content Button?

[Alex]

Hi,

I was just wondering how would I localize the clear content button? (Preferably in XAML)

Hello Alexander,

RadComboBox has a property named ClearSelectionButtonContent, that should be of help:

Hi Valeri,

That method shown works fine, however I'm hoping to find a more reusable solution. As this is a feature that I will probably use in all text boxes and they will all have the same clear selection text (and each will consequently have to be localized)

Is there any way to set it to use some "global" setting?



I've tried several different methods but can't seem to find a good solution. i.e.
I've tried using a style to apply a static resource but that doesn't work

<Setter Property="ClearSelectionButtonContent" Value="{Binding Source={StaticResource MyControlStrings}, Path=ClearSelectionButtonContent, Mode=OneTime}"/>

Similarly, the following doesn't work

        <Style x:Key="Base_RadComboBox" TargetType="telerikInput:RadComboBox">
            <!--<Setter Property="ClearSelectionButtonContent" Value="{Binding Source={StaticResource MyControlStrings}, Path=ClearSelectionButtonContent, Mode=OneTime}"/>-->
            <Setter Property="ClearSelectionButtonContent" >
                <Setter.Value>
                    <TextBlock Text="Clear Value" telerik:LocalizationManager.ResourceKey="ContextMenu_Add"/>
                </Setter.Value>
            </Setter>

            <Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="False"/>
        </Style>
