dxUseVectorIcons Constant

Specifies if DevExpress controls use vector icons instead of bitmaps in built-in menus and dialogs.

Declaration

const dxUseVectorIcons: Boolean = True;

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	If True, DevExpress controls use a set of vector icons in UI elements of built-in menus and dialogs. If False (default), DevExpress controls use bitmap icons.

Remarks

To use vector icons instead of bitmaps in built-in UI elements and menus, set the dxUseVectorIcons global constant to True in the initialization section of the main application unit:

Delphi

uses
  Forms,
  cxLookAndFeels,
// ...
begin
  dxUseVectorIcons := True;
  Application.Initialize;
  Application.MainFormOnTaskbar := True;
  Application.CreateForm(TMyForm, MyForm);
  Application.Run;
end.

C++

#include <vcl.h>
#include "cxLookAndFeels.hpp"
#pragma hdrstop
#include <tchar.h>
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
USEFORM("Unit1.cpp", Form1);
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
int WINAPI _tWinMain(HINSTANCE, HINSTANCE, LPTSTR, int)
{
    try
    {
        dxUseVectorIcons = true;
        Application->Initialize();
        Application->MainFormOnTaskBar = true;
        Application->CreateForm(__classid(TMyForm), &MyForm);
        Application->Run();
    }
    // ...

The dxUseVectorIcons global constant value affects the following DevExpress products:

• Chart View in Data Grid
