Window: Improve the Shadow support for all themes

There should be an easy method to add/override the shadow of a RadWindow. Either via XAML attributes or code behind.

It would probably be good to allow the override of BlurRadius, Direction, and ShadowDepth.
For example (mockup):

<telerik:RadWindow x:Class="MyRadWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"
        Header="Settings" WindowStartupLocation="CenterOwner" SizeToContent="True" ResizeMode="NoResize" MinWidth="500" MaxWidth="900"    DropShadowOverride="True" DropShadowOverrideBlurRadius="10" DropShadowOverrideDirection"-90", DropShadowOverrideDepth="3" DropShadowOverrideColor="White">
     
    <Grid>
 
    <!-- UI code -->
 
    </Grid>
 
</telerik:RadWindow>

Hi Rob,

Thank you for the comments.

Would it be possible for you to provide a picture / video of the described behavior - what exactly happens when displaying a RadWindow over an existing RadWindow and switching themes at runtime? 

Thanks in advance for your time and cooperation.

Best Regards,
Vicky

Thank you for this consideration.  Many of the built in themes when using XAML (StyleManager) can "blend" when one displays another RadWindow over an existing RadWindow (even more so with the dark based themes) causing the user to think nothing happened when in fact a new RadWindow appeared (even more so when one positions a RadWindow relative to a control and the RadWindow is smaller than the parent RadWindow.

Cheers, Rob.
