The Custom Theme that Is Created by Using SASS ThemeBuilder Doesn't Affect Charts

Environment

Product Progress® Telerik® UI Chart for ASP.NET MVC
Operating System All
Visual Studio Version All
View Engine Razor

Description

I created a new SASS theme by using the Kendo UI ThemeBuilder tool, downloaded it, and added a reference to it in my Layout.cshtml file. The theme works as expected for the whole application but it doesn't affect the Charts even though I chose new colors for the series.

Cause

The Charts require you to set a custom property before they recognize the new styles.

Solution

Set the theme property of the Kendo UI Charts to "sass".

@(Html.Kendo().Chart()
  .Name("bar")
  .Theme("sass")
