TdxDockControl.BackgroundBitmap Property

Specifies the background image for dock control.

Declaration

property BackgroundBitmap: TBitmap read; write;

Property Value

Type
TBitmap

Remarks

The background image of dock controls, automatically created by a bar manager, is specified by the bar manager’s Backgrounds.Bar property. Thus, all such dock controls will have a common background image.

The BackgroundBitmap property can be used to set the background image for manually created dock controls. Such dock controls are represented by the TdxBarDockControl class which publishes this property.

Note that bars are painted transparently when docked to a dock control provided that their BackgroundBitmap property is not set. Thus, if toolbars don’t have their own background image assigned, they use the background image specified by the underlying dock control’s BackgroundBitmap property.
