Note that these files are installed with <b>Scheduler for WPF</b> to C:\Program Files\ComponentOne\WPF Edition\C1WPFNewSchedule\XAML\themes, by default. They may be in a different location if you installed the product elsewhere on your machine.</li> <li>Create a new theme resource dictionary in the same project and use the source XAML as a merged resource dictionary within it.</li> <li>Set the <a href="C1.WPF.Schedule.4~C1.WPF.Schedule.C1Scheduler~Theme.html">C1Scheduler.Theme</a> property to your resource dictionary.</li> <li>Edit your theme resource dictionary. You should be able to view the results in the designer.</li> <li>After you have finished, if you want to share your theme between different applications, re-pack it into a separate assembly as was described previously.</li> </ol> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p><!--DXMETADATA end--> <a name="seealsobookmark"></a> <!--DXMETADATA start type="FilteredItemList" scrap="CATEGORISED_LINKS" namespace="linkcategory" source="Item" filter="" NoHeader="True" NoFooter="True" format="%%replaceinquotes:value=false%%%%scrap:name=_COLLAPSIBLE_HEADER,idprefix=seealso,caption=""%%phrase:name=SeeAlso%%%%designlist:tagidentifier=seealso,itemtype=See Also%%""%%%%filtereditemlist%%</div>"--><!--DXMETADATA end--> </div> <div id="FooterContent"> <!--DXMETADATA start type="Scrap" condition="communityenabled" name="_COMMUNITY_FOOTER" --><!--DXMETADATA end --> <!--DXMETADATA start type="Variable" name="CopyrightNotice" format="<p> </p><p> </p><hr style=""height: 1px"" /><p>%%variable%%</p>" --><p> </p><p> </p><hr style="height: 1px"><p>Copyright (c) <script type="text/javascript"> var theDate=new Date() document.write(theDate.getFullYear()) </script> GrapeCity, inc.
