RadMaskedTextInput Boundary Issue

[Imdad Turi]

Hello Every 1 and Telerik!

I have so many RadMaskedTextInput in my application. Most of them is ReadOnly property "True". By making ReadOnly property equal to True, the boundary gets invisible. i tried by modifying Border thickness and Color but it doesn't reflect changes. To get better idea of the issue please checkout the attached snapshot. i also tried using style tags.

Thanks.

Hello Imdad,

By design in Windows8, Office2013 and Windows8Touch themes, there is no border in the ReadOnly VisualState of the RadMaskedInputControls. You have several options:

• Edit the default ControlTemplate of the RadMaskedInputBase and control what is changing in ReadOnly VisualState
• You can consider using IsEnabled = False instead of IsReadOnly = True.
• You can add Border on top of the MaskedInput in your application. the bind the Visibility of the border to the IsReadOnly property of the MaskedInput via telerik's BooleanToVisibilityConverter
