[DXCategory("Behavior")]
public DefaultBoolean TransparentEditorsMode { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
DefaultBoolean **Default**

True if specific in-place editors are painted using a transparent background color when focused; False if not; Default, if the behavior depends on the WindowsFormsSettings.DefaultSettingsCompatibilityMode global setting.

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

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.
