UI for Disabled RadRichTextBox

[tushar]

Hello!

      I'm using the "RadRichTextBox" in my project. I'm facing a problem when the control is disabled (i.e. IsEnabled = False). In disabled state the controls turns Grey and the text visibility is very low. I cannot use read-only or any other property as they are being used for other purpose. I need to change the template for Disabled control, so as to not make it Grey but make the Disable mask transparent instead. Need help for the same.

Thanks

Tushar

Hello Tushar,

You can find the documentation on how to edit the control's template at the following locaitons:

- Overview (read this first)
- Template Structure
- Styling the RadRichTextBox (this one contains instructions on how to style it)

Take a look at the visual states for the control, you'll find a disable state (see my attached screenshot). That's the one you can style to your liking.

For your convenience, I have attached a project with the RadRichTextBox style already copied out into "RadRichTextBoxStyle1" and used in MyRichTextBox on MainPage.xaml.
