Inheritance of an existing usercontrol

[Christie Admin]

Hi,

In my solution, in namespace B, I have a project named CustomControls. This project contain 5 customs UserControls based on existing Telerik UserControls.

ie:

public class CustomExpander : RadExpander (no xaml attached to the class)
{
}

When I try to use my customs UserControls in my main project which is in namespace A in the same solution, in my xaml I can add as an example my CustomExpander but all the properties of the RadExpander are not accesssible in the xaml?!?

Thank's
Alain

Hi Alain,

You should have referenced the Telerik binaries in both of the projects in order to get it working correctly. So assume this is the issue here - please try adding references to the other project also.

Hope this helps.

Hi Kalin,

referencing the binairies solved the issue. I have another issue since then... In my UserControl, I added in the MergedDictionary  the theme xaml files but my custom control become not visible. If I use a direct Telerik control, the Telerik control are visible.

Thank's
Alain

Hello Alain,

When using Implicit Styles you also would also need to merge the theme files in the App.xaml of the other project in order to show the custom controls.

Hope this helps.
