How can we set a theme globally for each windows?

[Alexis]

Hello,

My simple project has this hierarchy:

- App.xml (Application)

   - MainWindow.xaml (Starting point)

   - AnotherWindow.xaml (Created from MainWindow.xaml)

I tried to put the following into App.xaml.cs (OnStartup):

SfSkinManager.ApplyStylesOnApplication = true;

Although, whenever I open a new "AnotherWindow.xaml" window, the style is still the default one.

Hi Alexis,  

  

Thanks for using our Syncfusion products.  

  

We have checked your requirement that you want to apply the theme globally for the controls in all windows maintained in application”. On applying theme to the Mainwindow and setting ApplyStylesOnApplication as true,  the theme will apply to the mainwindow and the controls in it.  In order to apply the theme to the another window,  we need to set theme for the new window explicitly as shown in the below code snippet for applying theme.  

  

  

SfSkinManager.SetTheme(this, new Theme("MaterialDark"));  

  

  

  

Please let us know if you need any further assistance on this.

Alright, thanks for the answer.

Maybe the documentation could be modified because "Application Wide" feels like the theme will be applied to everything in the application.
From your explanation, it's more "Window wide" as if you create another window, you need to specify again what's the theme.

Hi Alexis 

 

Thank you for your update. 

 

When the ApplyStylesOnApplication property of SfSkinManager is set as True , the theme would apply for all the windows which has the same controls in an application. However it won’t apply for the windows which has different controls in application. So only we suggest you to set theme in windows level.
