Hello Jun,

In the attached project I have replaced the Appearance API setters in the code behind with a declaration of StyleBuilderData object instance that holds the necessary colors and mappings in the UserControl.Resources (the key should be "StyleBuilderData" so the control can pick the correct resource up). If you use only line series definitions in your application, you can remove all commented lines, because they are necessary for other series. 

The main idea is that most of our themes [except the Expression Dark one] have White fill for the point marks, that cannot be changed through the PaletteBrushes functionality. That is why in the styles that overwrite the default ones I have changed the PointMarkStyle to use the main color for its fill: 

<telerik:StyleMappingCollection x:Key="PointMarkStyle">
    <telerik:StyleMapping Property="Stroke" SourceKey="main" />
    <telerik:StyleMapping Property="Fill" SourceKey="main" />
</telerik:StyleMappingCollection>

The main color is the one that can be modified  when using a custom palette.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Evgenia
