# Culture Service

The CultureService class allows to localize the culture-aware settings of the RadNumericBox on a per control basis. It is placed in the **Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Primitives** namespace.

## Properties

The following attached properties are exposed:

* Culture
* CultureName

Here are the available methods:

* GetCultureName(DependencyObject instance): Gets the CultureName value for the specified dependency object instance.
* SetCultureName(DependencyObject instance, string cultureName): Sets the specified CultureName value to the provided dependency object instance.
* GetCulture(DependencyObject instance): Gets the CultureInfo value for the specified dependency object instance.
* SetCulture(DependencyObject instance, CultureInfo value): Sets the specified CultureInfo value to the provided dependency object instance.

**Examples 1 and 2** demonstrate how to change the culture of a single \[RadNumericBox]\(%slug radnumericbox-gettingstarted%) to "de".

#### **Example 1: Setting the CultureName in xaml**

```XAML
	<Grid xmlns:input="using:Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Input">
		<input:RadNumericBox telerikPrimitives:CultureService.CultureName="de" />
	</Grid>
```

#### **Example 2: Setting the CultureName in code**

```C#
	RadNumericBox currentNumBox = new RadNumericBox();
	currentNumBox.SetValue(CultureService.CultureProperty, new CultureInfo("de"));
```
