Localization support for RadTextBox/password strength?

[Kevin]

I have a RadTextBox field used as a password entry field.  Furthermore, I'm using the built-in password strength indicator for this field as follows:

    PasswordStrengthSettings  ShowIndicator="true"

I need for the strength text to be culturally sensitive but I'm not seeing a Localization attribute to work with.  How can this text be set?

 

Thanks in advance.

Actually, I found how these are set by this page:  https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/textbox/functionality/password-strength-checker/defaultcs.aspx

While the property takes a delimited list, it was a bit more difficult since I use resource files.  It would have been nice to set these in a declarative way such as this:

<PasswordStrengthSettings  TextStrengthDescriptions="<%$ Resources: Mystrings, lblOne %>;<%$ Resources: Mystrings, lblTwo %>;<%$ Resources: Mystrings, lblThree %>;<%$ Resources: Mystrings, lblFour %>;<%$ Resources: Mystrings, lblFive %>"  ...

or even with a bound, server-side string variable (concatenation) but this is invalid.

 

What I ended up doing was tapping the textbox's OnLoad event:

    <telerik:RadTextBox runat="server" ID="rtbPassword" OnLoad="rtbPassword_Load" ...

and setting this property in the server-side OnLoad event code like this:

    rtbPassword.PasswordStrengthSettings.TextStrengthDescriptions = string.Format("{0};{1};{2};{3};{4}" ...

 

Not the best solution in my opinion, but it does work.
