Share custom skin between applications

[Tatiana]

Hi,

In my company we have multiple web sites (internal and external). And we use our custom skin created from one of your skins. Currently we have the same set of the css files and the images in each of our applications. I am wondering if it's possible to have them in the separate project and attach it to the solution.

Any suggestions are very appreciated.

Thank you,
Tatiana

Tatiana:

I believe that your requirement is covered in the How to load skins from external assemblies Code Library thread. This feature is available when using Telerik RadControls that are Q1 2011 or newer.

Hope this helps!

Hi,

I am using Q2 2011 and this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much for your tip!!!

However, after I did the changes I came across a few problems:

1. RadCombobox
 I have the pages where the comboboxes are located inside a table or inside a grid (RadGrid). And it looks like the style is not applied to the comboboxes at all (does not matter if it's custom skin or not). If I have a combobox on the page, the skin applied correctly. I attached the images.

2. When I open RadToolTip control or RadPanel control they look good and working correctly. However, I got the following error:
                Error Caught in Application_Error event

             Error in: http://localhost:61472/WebResource.axd?d=Kn23YQyCCBIGjWBdCIhaBka2xuxC_TsUzNvTRrXO9C4hbMgSP4quEvJtbziIZamQA2tq0UM3vj7V-WoMD14StQ0Sjl7hqiKcXFAnbC_10aZvRaLT-E_7Lt2yNta9E84bO_LVW_NhUTctCgusECUjCA_oV3ptpw4zFzEH4uqPttyNOu156gi_a062TqwUTtdxFfzQMg2&t=634650020430267417

             Error Message: This is an invalid webresource request.

                                    at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)

Any suggestions why I had those problems?

Thank you

Possible causes and solutions for the Error Message: This is an invalid webresource request is covered in this forum thread:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/ajax/this-is-an-invalid-webresource-request.aspx

I'd suggest that you open a support ticket with Telerik for the outstanding problems. Although they monitor forums, the response is not guaranteed. For more critical issues, like this, the support ticket option will insure a dedicated response.

Cheers!
