Property Value

Type
TcxLookAndFeel

Remarks

LookAndFeel controls the default look and feel of a grid control (tab panels, dropdown buttons) and the style behavior in response to user actions.

The LookAndFeel.NativeStyle attribute determines whether the control’s elements (borders, buttons and the background) are drawn using the display settings determined by the operating system. For instance, in Windows XP the current XP theme is used if LookAndFeel.NativeStyle is set to True.

If LookAndFeel.NativeStyle is set to False, then the LookAndFeel.Kind property specifies the default look and feel of a grid. Four styles (standard, flat, ultra flat, and Office 2003) determine the manner in which a grid is painted and responds to mouse events. You can also apply skins via the LookAndFeel.SkinName property.
