                                    We have just installed version 12.1 with the new metro themes (dark and light) for silverlight but noticed that the light theme isn't complete in this version. Do you have an expected date for a version that it will be fully complete?


                                    Thanks,

                                    Gareth

                                Hello Gareth,

                                Thank you for your feedback. We would appreciate it if you describe exact problems you have encountered with this theme appearance. Now we are working on this theme, and your feedback is appreciated. We plan to finish this theme in the next minor version.

                                  Hi Marina,

                                  Sorry for the delay and thanks for the reply. All of the editors text are a light grey colour (this would be the normal text editors and BarItem controls) and the GridControl text is white (so not visible on the white background).

                                  Do you have an expected date for the next minor release? We are demoing our system to the company on the 13 July and it would be really good to have the text on these controls the correct colour. If the expected release date is after the 13 July is there any way to set the foreground colour (as setting the foreground property doesn't seem to have an effect)?

                                  Thanks,
                                  Gareth

                                • Thank you for reporting this issue. I have managed to reproduce it on my side. Our developers and designers will examine this behavior as soon as possible.

                                  Thanks Ted.

                                  Thanks Marina.

                                  How do I need to go about requesting an intermediate build? We will probably need the build by the end of next week (Friday 6th July) in preparation of the company demo but we are new to devexpress so haven't been through this process before.

                                • When we fix this issue, you will get an email from us and will be able to click the Request Fix link in the orange area on the right. We will provide our intermediate build ASAP.

                                  Ok, thanks Marina, I'll wait for the fix email then. Thanks for your help.

                                  Hi,

                                  I have now requested the fix against this issue but I downloaded the fix relating to the other issue (http://www.devexpress.com/issue=B216523) and I had a few problems with it. Will the fix that I have just requested through this issue be the same as the other issue (v2012 vol 1.5 )?

                                  If the fix is going to be the same, I can confirm that the grid text has been fixed but the scrollbars and all of the other controls now seem to have the metropolis dark theme set against them when the light theme is applied!

                                  Please see screen shots from the demo project and my own demo.

                                  Thanks,
                                  Gareth

                                • Thank you for your feedback. We are researching the problem.

                                • Hello,

                                  I have tested our last build and cannot recreate problems you have on your screenshots with our Metropolis Light theme. It looks like our build from thread ID B216523 has problems. Please accept our apologies. The only problem I have encountered is described here: SummaryPanel and SummaryItem are not visible in the Metropolis Light theme (12.1.4.12180). We will fix it ASAP and you will be able to request a new intermediate build.

                                • Gareth H 06.28.2012

                                  Thanks Marina, I really appreciate your help. I will wait for the issue to be fixed. I'm guessing that the fix that I have previously requested against this issue can be ignored and I'll request a new one when it becomes available. Do you have any time scales on when it will be fixed?

                                • I hope our designer will fix this issue within some days. You will be notified when the issue is resolved.
