  • Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.PresetIconSet
  • Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.IconDefinition

What to do now

Change the full name of the types:

  • Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.ConditionalFormattings.ConditionalFormatting
  • Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.ConditionalFormattings.DataBarAxisPosition
  • Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.ConditionalFormattings.PresetIconSet
  • Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.ConditionalFormattings.IconDefinition

Changed
