Hello Dani

I managed to get it to work on a normal window however I prefer to use the RadWindow so I will try what you have sent.
How do I format the non Telerik WPF controls in the RadWindow like a I do in the standard Window? I use this code below
to do it on the standard WPF window.

    <Window.Resources>
        <!-- this is for global style for controls -->
        <Style TargetType="Window" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=Window}}" />
        <Style TargetType="TextBox" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=TextBox}}" />
        <Style TargetType="PasswordBox" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=PasswordBox}}" />
        <Style TargetType="ListBox" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=ListBox}}" />
        <Style TargetType="ListBoxItem" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=ListBoxItem}}" />
        <Style TargetType="Button" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=Button}}" />
        <Style TargetType="RadioButton" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=RadioButton}}" />
        <Style TargetType="CheckBox" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=CheckBox}}" />
    </Window.Resources>

Simon

I tried via code again and I am getting the type.ToString() being added to the header of the RadWindow.
I did try this originally before IconTemplate in XAML.

Hello Simon,

Thank you for your reply.

If you are getting the string of the image, rather than the image itself, you should set the Source of the Image. You can use the approach from the article I posted:

radWindow.Icon = new Image() 
   Source = new BitmapImage( new Uri( "/Images/WindowIcon.png", UriKind.Relative ) ) 
};

or you can do that in XAML with an IconTemplate with the Image Soure set:

<DataTemplate x:Key="WindowIconTemplate">
      <Image Source="/Images/WindowIcon.png"
             Stretch="None" />
  </DataTemplate>

If you are still unable to visualize the icon, the problem must be somewhere else. I would like to ask you to send a sample which illustrates this behavior so that we can help you.

On your question about customizing non-Telerik controls, I am afraid there is hardly any way to apply our themes to native Windows controls.  Telerik themes are not designed to work with non-Telerik controls.

Our themes contain resources for Telerik controls with only few exceptions - ListBox, ScrollViewer, TextBox. For these controls there are no equivalents among Telerik controls, so we have created Styles for them in order to use them in a consistent way in our themes.

Looking forward to your reply.

Sincerely yours,
Dani
