Understanding Skin CSS File

Styles for RadRotator are defined using Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) syntax. Each style consists of a selector that identifies an HTML element to be styled, and property/value pairs that describe each of the style specifics, e.g. color, padding, margins, etc. See the RadRotator's CSS Classes topic for more information on the specific CSS selectors used for RadRotator skins.

Each style maps to a "class" attribute in an HTML tag. For example, consider the HTML rendering of a RadRotator control: represented is the HTML code that renders a RadRotator, set with a specific options. The HTML elements are styled both with classes that are defined in the CSS files and inline styles. If you like to change something in the styles you should do that in the inline styles or in the CSS files.

    <div style="height: 110px; width: 330px; visibility: visible;" class="RadRotator RadRotator_Vista horizontalRotator rrNoBorder"

RadRotator

.className
{
    border: 1px solid #999999;
    float: left;
    margin: 3px;
    width: 125px;
    height: 125px;
    background-image: url('<%# Eval("ProductID", "../../../Img/Northwind/Products/{0}.jpg") %>');
}
<telerik:RadRotator RenderMode="Lightweight" ID="RadRotator1" runat="server" Width="330px" Height="110px"
    CssClass="horizontalRotator" ScrollDuration="500" FrameDuration="2000" ItemHeight="110"
    ItemWidth="110">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <div style="width: aut0; border: 1px dotted #eee;">
            <img src='<%# Page.ResolveUrl("~/Rotator/Img/Northwind/Customers/Thumbs/") + Container.DataItem %>.jpg'
                alt="Customer Image" />
        </div>
    </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:RadRotator>

Where .className will replace the inline styles in:

<div style="width: aut0; border: 1px dotted #eee;" class="className">
    <img src='<%# Page.ResolveUrl("~/Rotator/Img/Northwind/Customers/Thumbs/") + Container.DataItem %>.jpg'></img>
</div>
