Remarks

Documents within a DocumentManager can paint their BaseDocument.Images with the same color as their BaseDocument.Captions. This feature is called Glyph Skinning and allows you to build monochrome UIs for your applications. To enable or disable this feature, use the IBaseDocumentProperties.AllowGlyphSkinning property in the BaseView.DocumentProperties section for the entire View, or the AllowGlyphSkinning property for individual documents.

The figure below illustrates a DocumentManager with a TabbedView applied. The View contains two tabbed documents. The first document is painted using the Glyph Skinning feature.

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