RootLookAndFeel Method

Provides access to the root look & feel settings at runtime.

Declaration

function RootLookAndFeel: TcxLookAndFeel;

Returns

Type
TcxLookAndFeel

Remarks

This global function returns a TcxLookAndFeel class instance created on startup of an application built with DevExpress controls. The root level look & feel settings affect all TcxControl and TcxVCLControl descendants by default (that is, these settings are accessible via a control’s LookAndFeel.MasterLookAndFeel property).

Call the RootLookAndFeel global function to customize the global Kind, NativeStyle, RenderMode, SkinName, ScrollMode, and ScrollbarMode properties at runtime. To change the global look & feel settings at design time, use the TcxLookAndFeelController or TdxSkinController component instead.
