RadNumericUpDown with Metro theme - text still looks disabled after re-enabling when the theme is Metro

[Natasha]

Hello,

I am using Telerik Silverlight controls version 2011.2.712.1040.  I found an issue where if the RadNumericUpDown is disabled and then re-enabled, the text looks grayed out as if it's still disabled.  This only happens in the Metro theme.

<telerik:RadNumericUpDown IsEnabled="{Binding ElementName=EnabledOrNotCheckBox, Path=IsChecked, Mode=OneWay}"/>

<CheckBox x:Name="EnabledOrNotCheckBox" Content="up down enabled" IsChecked="True"/>

-> select and deselect the check box

Looks exactly the same an issue you fixed in 2009 for other themes (the second regression issue in the thread):

Do you think you'll be able to fix this in the next release?  Also, any known easy work arounds?

Thanks,

Natasha

Oh, and the date time picker has the opposite problem (with Metro theme) - the text stays bright even when the control is disabled :(.

Hello,

And it will still stay so even with the service pack. I am really sorry for the inconvenience. We have scheduled the task to force consistency on the Disabled and ReadOnly states of the input controls so I believe the controls will get better with one of the upcoming internal builds.

Kind regards,
