Themes not applied to Telerik Controls inside Custom User Controls

[Andrew]

We are in the process of updating an older website to use Master Pages along with Telerik controls. In addition to updating the CSS we have also created a Skin file, in which we have set the desired look/feel of the Telerik controls (for example):

<telerik:RadDatePicker runat="server" Skin="Windows7" /><br>
<telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel runat="server" Skin="Windows7" /><br>
<telerik:RadGrid runat="server" Skin="Windows7"><br>
    <PagerStyle PagerTextFormat="{4} {5} Matches Found &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; • &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Displaying Items {2} to {3} on Page {0} of {1}." /><br>
</telerik:RadGrid><br>
<telerik:RadComboBox runat="server" Skin="Windows7" />

This Skin file has been working perfect in our remodel until we created a Custom User Control (.ascx) with some Telerik controls (RADGrid and Loading Panel). These controls do not get the Skin applied.  If I manually add the Skin attribute in the Source of the .ascx page itself, the controls then look as desired.... but it should be the site-wide Skin file that controls this.

What could possibly be causing this problem?

Hello Andrew,

Have you specified the Them attribute in the page directive? I am sending a small sample that should work as expected.

Hope it helps.

Best wishes,
