Namespace: DevExpress.Utils

Assembly: DevExpress.Utils.v18.2.dll

Declaration

[DefaultValue(DefaultBoolean.Default)]
public DefaultBoolean AllowGlyphSkinning { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
DefaultBoolean **Default**

A DefaultBoolean enumeration value that specifies whether the current item’s glyph is painted using the foreground color.

Available values:

Name Description
True

Corresponds to a Boolean value of true.

False

Corresponds to a Boolean value of false.

Default

The value is determined by the current object’s parent object setting (e.g., a control setting).

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 to learn more about the glyph skinning feature.
