Hello, I have tried to programmatically set the theme for my master page by putting code in a "Page_PreInit" fuction in the master page's code behind. However, when I set a breakpoint there and run the app, the breakpoint is never hit. Of course my theme is not being applied. The above procedure works fine for any content page, but obviously doesn't work for my master page. So, how does one properly and programmatically set a theme...
