Hi,
We're using version 2011.3.1220.1050 of the Telerik controls for Silverlight 5. We're using the Expression Dark theme, with some of our own customizations.
The problem we're having is that the caret and selection highlight are not easily visible against the background. The caret is black against a dark grey background; the selection highlight is a slightly lighter grey than the background.
The native Silverlight TextBox control exposes three properties CaretBrush, SelectionForeground, and SelectionBackground, which let us customize this. Is there any way to do the same thing for RadDateTimePicker and RadNumericUpDown? I see there's a telerikUI:Caret control that can be styled - but it looks like that's only used by the RichTextBox.
I've attached two screenshots. The first shows how we want it to look - the customizations we've applied to the TextBox. The second screenshot shows how the DateTimePicker looks currently.
We used the following style for the TextBox:
Thanks for your help,
Richard
