Registers the Bonus Skins for runtime use.

Namespace: DevExpress.LookAndFeel

Assembly: DevExpress.Utils.v24.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Utils, DevExpress.Wpf.Core

#Declaration

[Browsable(false)]
[DefaultValue(false)]
public bool EnableBonusSkins { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean false

true to register the Bonus Skins.

#Remarks

Setting this property to true results in loading the DevExpress.BonusSkins.v24.2.dll assembly. If the assembly is successfully loaded, the Bonus Skins are registered for runtime use. If assembly loading fails, no exception is thrown. If the Bonus Skins are already registered, setting the EnableBonusSkins property to false has no effect.

defaultLookAndFeel1.EnableBonusSkins = true;
defaultLookAndFeel1.LookAndFeel.SkinName = "Caramel";

At design time, you can add the DefaultLookAndFeel component onto the form and use its smart SmartTag tag menu to register the Bonus Skins.
