Panel Size - ReusableRadCarouselPanel example

[Jon]

Hi..
How do I enlarge the panel size?
Say for instance - want to increase the carousel items to  500 x 500 for all items in the data template?
thanks again!

I meant to post this on the WPF forum.. can you move it?
thanks

Hi Jon,

The easiest way to achieve this is to define a global CarouselItem style that would set the Width and Height properties. There is a small catch though: the default CarouselItem style defines a MaxHeight setting that will cause an item of height 500 to get clipped. To get around this, you would have to set MaxHeight to 500 as well. Here is a XAML snippet that does that:

<telerik:RadCarousel Name="RadCarousel1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
    <telerik:RadCarousel.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="telerik:CarouselItem">
            <Setter Property="Width" Value="500" />
            <Setter Property="Height" Value="500" />
            <Setter Property="MaxHeight" Value="500" />
        </Style>
    </telerik:RadCarousel.Resources>
</telerik:RadCarousel>

I am attaching a sample project with 500x500 carousel items.
