Is it possible to change the colour of or indeed the image for the expander button. I want a traffic light type system indicating the data contained within the expander. ie set the expander button to red if i deem the data to be bad or green if i deem the data to be good, this should happen at run time...
Thanks in advance

Hello stephen yeadon,
Currently you will need to edit the control template of the Expander control. For Q3 release we are going to add a separate Style property for this specifically.

- Create new Style / Template for the expander - preview the App.xaml file.
- Create an appropriate layout in the expander's header - preview the MainPage.xaml file.
- Initialize the expander with the new Style.
- Note: I left the original toggle sign (an ellipse with a chevron inside). You should replace it with a nice looking icon to finalize the silky view.

Hello steve,
In order to change the default RadExpander button, you can set the RadExpander DecoratorTemplate property which controls the expander button template. You can find a working sample here.
Also, you can control the background color of the control through its Background property. You can further customize the control by changing its default ContentControl following the approach described here.
I hope this info will help you. Please let us know if you need more.
