TPF: Apply current control's theme menu option for all controls for custom Rad controls

It would be great if there were a right-click menu option for custom Rad controls to "apply the theme to all sub-controls", similar to how Forms work.

I've attached images to illustrate the functionality.

Right now it only works for forms, and my custom controls have to be manually adjusted one at a time, by hand, which is time consuming and error prone.

It would save a lot of time and reduce the chance of missing a control when applying themes locally.

Right now the only way to apply themes is either globally or individually by hand, or with a find-replace-in-files command on the ThemeName property.

Hello, Shawn,

Indeed, currently only RadForm offers the menu option for applying a theme for all controls within the form. It sounds to be a reasonable request for custom controls containing other nested controls. I am approving this request to track the demand for such functionality from other customers as well and research the possible ways to be achieved.

You can track its progress, subscribe for status changes, and add your comments on the following link

I have also updated your Telerik points.
