Customize the Appearance of Control Buttons
The buttons of RadRotator are styled with CSS3 since the Q2 2014 release of UI for ASP.NET AJAX. The new stylization of the buttons is supported by IE10+ and the rest of the modern browsers. This allows you to easily modify the appearance of the buttons in a custom skin for the rotator control. Example 1 shows how to create a custom CSS class that modifies the styles of the rotator in order to achieve the appearance in Figure 1 .
Figure 1: RadRotator with customized buttons appearance.
Example 1: The CSS rules that change the default RadRotator buttons to result in Figure 1.
<telerik:RadRotator RenderMode="Lightweight" ID="RadRotator1" runat="server" Skin="MyCustomSkin" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false"
EnableEmbeddedBaseStylesheet="false">
</telerik:RadRotator>When you create the custom CSS class customButtons you need to set it to the rotator via its CssClass property. You can choose a different name for the class and replace customButtons with it in Example 1.
