Remarks

This property is supported for the CheckEdit, RadioGroup, TrackBarControl and PictureEdit controls and their descendants, when they are used in-place within bars.

By default, if the WindowsFormsSettings.DefaultSettingsCompatibilityMode global setting is set to the v16 version of DevExpress components or earlier, the editors are painted using a non-transparent background color, when focused. Otherwise, the editors are painted using a transparent background color.

Use the TransparentEditorsMode property to explicitly specify whether or not the editors are painted using a transparent background color, when focused.
