RadDropDownButton theme

Please let us know how can we make the RadDropDownButton to look as in the attached image (we don't want the 3d effecT)

Hello Florin,

I believe you are referring to RadComboBox control in Metro theme:

<telerik:RadComboBox x:Name="myCombo" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Metro" />

Kind regards,

This has no effect on a RadDropDownButton - in your sample is a standard combobox
<telerik:RadDropDownButton telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Metro"

Please advice.

thank you.

Hi,

The screenshot you posted depicts a look that is easily doable with s simple RadComboBox. Is there any specific reason not to use a RadComboBox in your scenario?

If you are using a RadDropDownButton together with an ItemsControl as DropDownContent, you will need a way to close the button when an item has been selected. Furthermore, to customize the RadDropDownButton , you will need to modify the RadDropDownButtonStyle for Metro theme and change the brushes which are applied to each of its visual states. All this, just to resemble a RadComboBox.

Could you share more details on your scenario? Also, please share the XAML mark-up that you use and that you wish to modify.
