I am creating an application where it can have the docking functionality. SO I choosed telerik controls for it as it makes my work simple.

I am facing the issues while setting the styles for Header in the RadPane. I am createing RadPane's dynamically through a click event of a  menu Item.  I want to set a style for RadPane header,border of my own  where I Can use it all over  my application.  I am confused either to write styles for RadPane or RadPane group or PaneHeader.

Attached file is the sample of my application created using the general WPF controls like Menu, Tabcontrol. Created styles

Hello Sandeep,

To customize the border area around the content of RadPane, you will have to edit the style of the RadPaneStyle. It has five different control templates depending on the position it occupies in the RadDocikng control.

<Setter Property="LeftTemplate" Value="{StaticResource PaneTemplate}" />
<Setter Property="TopTemplate" Value="{StaticResource PaneTemplate}" />
<Setter Property="RightTemplate" Value="{StaticResource PaneTemplate}" />
<Setter Property="BottomTemplate" Value="{StaticResource PaneBottomTemplate}" />
<Setter Property="DocumentHostTemplate" Value="{StaticResource PaneDocumentHostTemplate}" />

To reflect changes everywhere you need to modify all the templates. The changes described in previous post was made only for DocumentHostTemplate.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
