Even when the control loses focus, the selected row remains highlighted.
How to get the selected item to have the same style like the non selected items? 

I just want to be able to check or uncheck the items, focus is not important and therefore there should not be a visible difference.

Expected something like this but it does not work:

ClassificationCheckedListBox.Focusable = False;
ClassificationCheckedListBox.AllowShowFocusCues = False;

Also trying some things from the selectedindex changed event like this does not do it:

ClassificationCheckedListBox.FocusedElement.ResetLayout(True);

Any clue appreciated

Hello, Walther,    

By default, RadCheckedListBox indicates the currently active and selected item with a border and orange fill color. If the control loses focus, the selected indication remains even though with a lighter color.

If I understand your requirement correctly, you want to eliminate the border and fill color and to disable the color indication no matter whether the control is focused or not. This can be easily achieved by handling the VisualItemFormatting event:
        public RadForm1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            this.radCheckedListBox1.VisualItemFormatting+=radCheckedListBox1_VisualItemFormatting;
        }

        private void radCheckedListBox1_VisualItemFormatting(object sender, ListViewVisualItemEventArgs e)
        {
            e.VisualItem.DrawFill = false;
            e.VisualItem.DrawBorder = false;
        }

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
