The following code shows how you can create and apply a **StarShape**:

  



```C#
StarShape starShape = new StarShape();
starShape.Arms = 12;
starShape.InnerRadiusRatio = .5f;
radPanel1.RootElement.Shape = starShape;
radPanel1.RootElement.ApplyShapeToControl = true;

```

```VB.NET
Dim starShape As New StarShape()
starShape.Arms = 12
starShape.InnerRadiusRatio = 0.5F
radPanel1.RootElement.Shape = starShape
radPanel1.RootElement.ApplyShapeToControl = True

```
