When i set background color of RadEntry it appear as square, rounded border is inside of square.

how to set background color under rounded border (without exceeding borders)

Hello Shalin,

Indeed, at this point,  if you set rounded border to RadEntry, the background color is not clipped.  I've logged this issue in our Feedback Portal, you could subscribe for notifications on status changes at the following link:

I am afraid I cannot suggest a suitable workaround for this issue.  I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.

You could find your points updated for your involvement.

This is still an issue a year later. Any fixes for this bug?

Hi Mark,

I am afraid we haven't made much progress regarding this issue. 

However, I could suggest a workaround - you can use RadBorder control to wrap the Entry instead of using its own BorderStyle. Here is a quick example:

<telerikPrimitives:RadBorder  BorderThickness="1" BorderColor="#4488F6" CornerRadius="8">
    <telerikInput:RadEntry x:Name="entry" WatermarkText="First Name" BackgroundColor="Red"  />
</telerikPrimitives:RadBorder>

Let me know whether such an approach would be acceptable.
