Run-time theme changing problem

[Mikhailo Shuturma]

Hello

There is an unresolved problem considering the theme which should be applied to RadDocking control in run-time mode.
Here a little code snippet:

 public MainWindow()
        {
            StyleManager.ApplicationTheme = new Office_BlueTheme();
            InitializeComponent();
        }

private void RadButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            StyleManager.ApplicationTheme = new Office_SilverTheme();
            StyleManager.SetTheme(myRadDocking, StyleManager.ApplicationTheme);
        }

This code can be applied to any sample project (where Docking control is used) available on your forum. The problem is that when this code is executed:

StyleManager.ApplicationTheme = new Office_SilverTheme();
StyleManager.SetTheme(myRadDocking, StyleManager.ApplicationTheme);

the layout of Docking windows will be destroyed. It stops working correctly. Please take a look on this and advise what can I do to resolve this problem. Note: this is not the Windows7Theme issue, this considers all themes.

Thanks

Hi,

I have the same issue. When i  change the theme on a RadDocking at runtime, all RadPaneGroups loose their positions and are aligned parallel to each other. I using the Aug 12, 2010 release.
