[Solved] How to Un-Bold the Selected Item

[Greg]

Seemingly simple question... I have a RadComboBox that I want to display the selected item without the font being bold.

The template being used:

<UserControl.Resources>
  <DataTemplate x:Key="SelectionBoxTemplate">
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Code}" FontWeight="Regular"/>
  </DataTemplate>
</UserControl.Resources>

The radcombobox:

<telerik:RadComboBox x:Name="RegionComboBox"
                     Grid.Column="2"
                     Margin="2"
                     ClearSelectionButtonContent="Clear"
                     ClearSelectionButtonVisibility="Visible"
                     DisplayMemberPath="Code"
                     ItemsSource="{Binding Regions}"
                     SelectedValue="{Binding Region,
                                             Mode=TwoWay}"
                     SelectedValuePath="Code"
                     SelectionBoxTemplate="{StaticResource SelectionBoxTemplate}"/>

I can change the color of the displayed item, but I cannot get the font weight to be regular. It is always bold.

Thanks.

Hi Greg,

I guess you are using Windows8 theme, where the default FontFamily of RadComboBox is Segoe UI Semibold. This FontFamily  doesn't have Normal FontWeight that is why you cannot change it. I suggest you change the FontFamily of RadComboBox or the TextBlock of SelectionBoxTemplate to Segoe UI which is the same font but with Normal FontWeight.

Hope this helps.
