I'm struggling to customize the look of my app. I thought everything about WPF was suppose to make this easier. And for the most part, it is easy, if we just stick to microsoft controls. But customize a infragistics control??? Aaaarggghhh.

I even followed your tutorials for creating  custom theme. No luck there either.

I was able to completely customize a microsoft text editor with border, corner radius, and even added some triggers attached to a property to change the background color of the control automatcally.

Now I'm trying to do the same with a DateTime editor and it's a struggle. If I use the same technique as above, I end up with a DateTimeEditor that displays my value but that I can't edit.

I can't create a style for my own custom datetimeeditor that inherits from your datetimeedtor or even just directly to your datetimeeditor.

I try to create a style that is "BasedOn" one of you styles but then at runtime it throws an exception because it can't find what it's based on. So then I just copy and paste even more out of your EditorsGeneric.xaml file but it's an endless cascade of needing more and more files to get things to resolve.

Am I missing something here?

What's the most basic example of me applying a custom border and cornerradius to your DateTimeEditor and also attaching my own control template triggers?

Is there a wpf themes forum ?
