Hello,
I need to change the colors of an item on my menu to bring attention to it. That part works great. Where I am having trouble is resetting it back to defaults. I am trying to use the resetvalue function to do this? Am I doing this correctly?
With mnuForms
.Image = My.Resources.rejectedForms16x16
.BorderPrimitive.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Visible
.FillPrimitive.GradientStyle = GradientStyles.Solid
.FillPrimitive.BackColor = Color.Red
.ForeColor = Color.White
.ResetValue(FillPrimitive.GradientStyleProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
.ResetValue(FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.ForeColorProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
.ResetValue(BorderPrimitive.VisibilityProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
End With2 Answers, 1 is accepted
Hello, Bill,
Please have in mind that depending on the theme that is applied to RadMenu, it may be possible to observe a different look with one and the same code. The following article gives useful information how to override theme settings at run time:
In case you are still experiencing any further difficulties, it would be greatly appreciated if you can specify what is the exact goal that you are trying to achieve. Thus, we would be able to get better understanding of the precise case and provide further assistance.

Hi Dess, I am just trying to reset the colors I changed back to their default values. I just need to temporarily highlight a menu item as per the code I posted.
.Image = My.Resources.rejectedForms16x16
.BorderPrimitive.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Visible
.FillPrimitive.GradientStyle = GradientStyles.Solid
.FillPrimitive.BackColor = Color.Red
.ForeColor = Color.White
and then change it back to all defaults when I am no longer needing to highlight it.
Hi, Bill,
I have prepared a sample code snippet how to set and reset the style settings. More information about the used approach is demonstrated here:
Private Sub RadButton1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles RadButton1.Click
Me.RadMenuItem1.SetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, Color.Red, "", GetType(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive))
Me.RadMenuItem1.SetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.GradientStyleProperty, GradientStyles.Solid, "", GetType(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive))
Me.RadMenuItem1.SetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.ForeColorProperty, Color.White, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.SetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.ImageProperty, My.Resources.Folder1, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.SetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.BorderPrimitive.VisibilityProperty, ElementVisibility.Visible, "")
End Sub
Private Sub RadButton2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles RadButton2.Click
Me.RadMenuItem1.ResetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.ResetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.GradientStyleProperty, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.ResetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.ForeColorProperty, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.ResetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.ImageProperty, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.ResetThemeValueOverride(LightVisualElement.DrawBorderProperty, "")
Me.RadMenuItem1.ResetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.BorderPrimitive.VisibilityProperty, "")
End SubShould you have further questions please let me know.
