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	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

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.
