Public Property AllowGlyphSkinning As DefaultBoolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
DefaultBoolean	Default	A value that specifies if this item’s glyphs should be painted using the item’s foreground color.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

If the AllowGlyphSkinning property equals False, tile glyphs are painted as they are. If the property is set to True, tile glyphs are filled using a hue specified by the tile fore color. If the AllowGlyphSkinning property is set to Default, the glyph skinning feature is controlled by the TileControl.AllowGlyphSkinning setting.

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 freely used in your application.
