LabelControl.AllowGlyphSkinning Property

Gets or sets whether the label image is painted based on the label’s foreground color.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v19.1.dll

Declaration

[DefaultValue(DefaultBoolean.Default)]
[DXCategory("Appearance")]
public DefaultBoolean AllowGlyphSkinning { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
DefaultBoolean **Default**

true, if the label image is painted based on the label’s foreground color; otherwise, false.

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

The glyph skinning feature allows you to fill the label image using a hue specified by the label’s foreground color (the LabelControl.Appearance.ForeColor property). If the AllowGlyphSkinning property is set to Default or False, this feature is disabled.

For the best visual results, we recommend using grayscale icons with the glyph skinning feature. The DevExpress Image Gallery and Context-Dependent Images provides a set of grayscale icons, which can be used freely in your application.
