Mastering ClearButtonStyle in RadMaskedTextInput with Telerik UI for WPF

If you're using the Telerik UI for WPF framework and find yourself needing to customize the ClearButtonStyle of the RadMaskedTextInput control, you're not alone. Many developers grapple with setting styles programmatically in code-behind rather than purely through XAML. This guide will walk you through the steps to effectively assign a style to the ClearButton of RadMaskedTextInput in a straightforward manner.

Understanding the RadMaskedTextInput Control

The RadMaskedTextInput control is part of the Telerik UI for WPF library and provides developers with a powerful way to accept formatted input from users. One of its useful features is the built-in ClearButton, which allows users to quickly erase the input. Customizing the appearance and functionality of this button can improve user experience.

Assigning a Name to Your Control

Before diving into coding, make sure you've given your RadMaskedTextInput control a name in your XAML file. This is crucial as it allows you to reference the control directly in your code-behind.

Setting the ClearButtonStyle via XAML Resource

To set a style for the ClearButton when defined in XAML, you can use the FindResource method. Here’s how to do it:

Define Your Style in XAML: This should be included in your resource dictionaries or within the <Window.Resources> section.
