Setting a theme using Visual Style has no effect

[Senthil Ramanathan]

Hi ,

Please refer to attached project. The theme setting does not take effect.

Grid definition in xaml :

<syncfusion:SfDataGridx:Name="dataGrid"
AutoExpandGroups="True"
AutoGenerateColumns="False"
ColumnSizer="SizeToHeader"
AllowSorting="True"
NavigationMode="Cell"
ShowGroupDropArea="True"
ShowColumnWhenGrouped="False"
LiveDataUpdateMode="AllowSummaryUpdate"
AllowDraggingColumns="True"
AllowGrouping="True"
AllowResizingColumns="True"
AllowFiltering="True"

DockPanel.Dock="Top"
>
 
<syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
<syncfusion:GridTextColumnMappingName="Manager"HeaderText="Manager"/>
<syncfusion:GridTextColumnMappingName="Code"HeaderText="Code"/>
syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
syncfusion:SfDataGrid>

Setting the theme :

SfSkinManager.SetVisualStyle(dataGrid,VisualStyles.Metro);

Hi Senthil,

We have analyzed your sample and the metro theme is applied correctly. We are unable to reproduce the issue which you have reported “Setting a theme using visual style has no effect”.

We attached the screenshot of your project with theme modification in the below link for your reference.

Has this issue been resolved? We are having the same exact problem with our application.

Thanks.

Hi Mario, 

 

In SfSkinManager, we have merged the Skin resources from the theme assemblies by using reflection while loading the dlls. So we suggest you set the CopyLocal as True for the Theme dlls.
