#Remarks

The glyph skinning feature allows you to paint the item’s glyph based on the foreground color. By default, when the AllowGlyphSkinning property is set to Default, this feature controlled by the owner control. To specify the global setting, use the corresponding property accessible using the ContextButtonOptions property of the owner control. The AllowGlyphSkinning property overrides the global glyph skinning setting for the current item.

For the best visual results, we recommend using the gray-scale icons from the DevExpress Image Gallery. See the Glyph Skinning topic for more information.
