Property Value

Type Description
Boolean

true if all Documents within the current View should have their icons painted in the Documents’ foreground colors; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Documents within a DocumentManager can paint their BaseDocument.Images in 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 AllowGlyphSkinning property in the BaseView.DocumentProperties section for the entire View, or the IBaseDocumentDefaultProperties.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.
