Using Themes on Silverlight client

Hi,

I plan to use your Silverlight client controls in my own Silverlight application.
My application uses a custom theme to make it consistent with the corporate colors and branding.

My problems is that
1 - Your Silverlight client controls seam to allow only a small set of predefined Themes. Any chance that you can open the possibility for your customers to write their own themes and apply it to your controls?
2 - The Main Menu of the Designer has a background using (I guess) the MS Silverlight brand images. Any chance that if you open the door for using custom Themes, that this background is part of the Theme as well? Or just provide an Option to define the background image for the Main Menu.

Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Hello,

After the release in December we plan to add the ability to support custom themes. But you will need to purchase a license with the source code to see the code of our themes and change what is needed.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for the reply.

Do you mean that I would need to modify an existing Theme? Or use it as a template to create a completly new Theme?

Thank you.

Best Regards,
Luis

You will need this, if you wish to change our theme, without creating from zero.

Thank you.
