#Remarks

The XtraTabbedMdiManager.AllowGlyphSkinning property enables or disables the Glyph Skinning feature for the entire XtraTabbedMdiManager. If this feature is enabled, icons for all XtraMdiTabPages are painted in the color hue specified in the pages’ foreground colors. The AllowGlyphSkinning property overrides the global setting for individual pages. Global glyph skinning settings are only applied to XtraMdiTabPages whose AllowGlyphSkinning property equals DefaultBoolean.Default.

For best visual results, we recommend the gray-scale icons from the DevExpress Image Gallery for all XtraMdiTabPages, when using the Glyph Skinning feature.

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