Greetings,

I'm recently using the RadMenu on a grid and am having a need to create a custom skin for it.

In this tutorial (http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/menu_appearancecreatingacustomskin.html) it says to:

"Copy the default RadMenu skin files from the installation directory to the "Green" directory; copy both the \Menu directory that contains the images for this skin and the Menu.Default.css file that defines the skin styles."

To date, the only thing we have from Telerik in our DotNetNuke folders, are 3 files in DotNetNuke\bin:
Telerik.Web.UI.dll  Version 2010.01.0309.35
Telerik.Web.Design.dll  Version 2009.03.1104.35
Telerik.Web.UI.XML dated 7/28/2010

Shouldn't these versions in the DNN\bin folder be the same?

We have not downloaded or installed any Telerik controls, do we need to?
If so, which version should we download and or where can we get them?  Am a bit confused about this version as we seem to have two differing versions at current?

In addition, the Telerik controls show an error in design mode in Visual Studio, so we can't take advantage of their wizards etc. for configuring them.

In addition, intellisense doesn't work for Telerik controls in our aspx pages (it does work in c# code behind though).  We need that so we don't have to go searching for documentation in order to do basic tasks.

I've been told that installing the right version of the controls (not sure of version needed as mentioned, nor where we might get these) may address the two Visual Studio issues.  It may as well provide me with the files we'll need to customize the skins for these RadMenues...

Anyone?

Thanks in advance,
gbute

As part of the agreement with Telerik, users cannot direct access the telerik controls, instead have to access them through their dotnetnuke wrappers. This means that whilst we have access to the functionality you don't get the nice design time elements - to get this you need the full telerik licence (note: users of the PE/EE versions of dotnetnuke get telerik licences). At present there is not a radmenu wrapper in dotnetnuke, one was created as a free project - http://dnnradmenu.codeplex.com/ , and is expected to be added in one of the next releases along with a lot more wrappers. The wiki expands on this - http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Wiki/tabid/1409/Page/Telerik-Wrappers/Default.aspx
