How do I set the Theme to RadColorDialog

[Filleau]

Hi,

Working with the last Winform Q1-2012 and Vb.Net, I'm trying to set the theme "Metro" when the RadColorDialog is showed.
Searching in forum and documention I havn't found how to do this.

Can somebody can help me ?

Thanks

Hello, 

Assuming that you have added a Metro Theme component to your form, and you are launching the RadColorDialogForm from a RadButton click, then this will theme the dialogue. 

Remember to mark as answer if this helps, and of course let me know if you need further help

Private Sub RadButton1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadButton1.Click
    Dim color As New Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadColorDialogForm()
    color.ThemeName = "TelerikMetro"
    If color.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
        Telerik.WinControls.RadMessageBox.Show(color.SelectedColor.ToString())
    End If
End Sub

thanks
Richard

Hello Mr Filleau, 

RadColorDialog is a Component rather than a control and this is the reason it does not have a ThemeName property. Please consider Richard's suggestion for setting the theme.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
