Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true, if the current DXMenuItem icon should be painted in the DXMenuItem‘s foreground color; otherwise, false.

Remarks

An icon, assigned to the DXMenuItem.Image property, can attain the color hue specified by the item’s foreground color if the AllowGlyphSkinning property equals true. This feature is called Glyph Skinning and helps you to build monochrome UIs for your applications.

For best visual results, pick gray-scale icons from the DevExpress Image Gallery for DXMenuItems when using the Glyph Skinning feature.

DXMenuItem is not the only control that supports this feature. See the Glyph Skinning topic for the complete control list.
