Yet another theming issue:
We have noticed that it is only possible to add 10 theme files to the Theme Manager - once it hits this limit, I can keep trying to add more, but they never show up in the list.
Please let us know if this is true - the documentation does not mention anything about a limit on theme resources - and we have so many because we are breaking the theme files up by control-type, and intend to merge them once the themes are set. We do this because the VSB crashes when using 'complex' theme files.
We have a deadline this week and are currently help up due to theming issues on our project, at this point we need a response as soon as possible so we can decided a course of action to move forward.

Hello, is it possible to modify the theme applied to the scrollbars within a RadTextBox? I thought I did see a previous post concerning this, but am unable to locate it again.
Thanks!

In this post:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/thread/b311D-gdcka.aspx
This is stated:
As for loading themes from file, you should have in mind that the file name is generated automatically, and references the full file path on your hard drive. It is quite possible that this path is not valid when deploying the application on another station. For that reason you should use embedded resource OR file name relative to application's executable file. Here is example for relative path:

For that reason you should use embedded resource OR file name relative to application's executable file. Here is example for relative path:
- If your application compiles in "C:\Prorects\MyApp\bin\debug" and the theme file is located in "MyApp\Resources" folder, the relative path would be: "..\..\Resources\MyThemeFileName.xml"
In Q2 2007 this will work in the designer as well.
However, I do not believe this to be true - because when I change the path name to a relative path, it is using the Visual Studio IDE launch directory as the base directory, not the directory of the application files.
Can you confirm this?
I am using Q32007 SP1.

We are noticing that even if we have the 'Text' property set, the text does not display in design mode - it does display at run-time.
Also, is there a method for changing the orientation of the label so the text displays before the Checkbox?
Thanks.

Hello, I may be doing something unusual, but I figured I'd give it a try and it worked..
I changed the 'ThemeClassName' for a RadPanel to a custom name, then matched that in a Theme file - this way I have more descriptive ThemeClass names.
It DOES work, which is great - the problem is when I close the user control, it wipes out my custom ThemeClassName, and reverts it back to 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadPanel'.
Is this intended behaviour? It seems that if I can change this property it should save it, otherwise the property should be locked.
Thanks.

Say I have the mask (###) ###-####, how do I load the string 1234567890 into the textbox and retaining the mask?
In the above scenario, I also try to set .Value = telephone, where telephone is a 10 character long string. However the text box is simply empty if I do that.

Hello,
We customized the Stylesheet-CLASS property using the 'Edit UI Elements' for a RadPanel. For example:
Default:
Element=FillPrimitive
Class: RadPanelFill
We changed to:
Element=FillPrimitive
Class: AdminPanelFill
In our theme file, we have a property setting group with ClassSelector:
<XmlClassSelector ElementClass="AdminPanelFill">
In the designer, this works as expected, but in run-mode it fails to work. The theme IS being loaded, I confirmed this by debugging and using immediate mode to return the default style builder from the ThemeResolutionService. But instead of using our custom Class names, it reverts to 'RadPanelFill'.
Please advise on this issue, at this point it appears that using themes with custom class names for primitives does not work as expected. Possibly we are doing something wrong, however the 'manual' provides little to no help - we wish to continue using the control library for future projects, but at this time there appear to be too many bugs or inconsistencies with the help documentation.

The PAdd returns flase, whether I have checked the cell as true. I have also tried like

Is it correct to place a theme-manager on a UserControl? I ask this because we have user controls that use Rad-Controls and the only way I could get the themes to apply is to put the thememanager on the Usercontrol itself - there is no 'form' when editing the controls.
This does work, however, when I make changes to the theme (via VSB or directly in xml) they are not applied. I have to REMOVE the reference to the embedded resource, and add it again - then the theme changes are working.
I noticed on a regular form I do not have to do this.
Any thoughts on this issue?

Hi
I have enabled the overflow button on a tab strip and when selecting a tab from the dropdown list, the selected tabitem is moved to the start of the tabstrip control (position 0) rather than the tabstrip just being scrolled to the selected tab item and that being made visible.
Is there any way of preventing this from happening and just scrolling the selected tabitem into view?
Best regards
Marek
