Specifies if the affected control uses operating system-dependent draw routines to display its content and UI elements.
property NativeStyle: Boolean read; write;
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Boolean | TrueThe operating system-dependent (native) style is enabled and all skin and base style-related settings have no effect.FalseThe affected control uses the active skin or a built-in deprecated style. |
You can set the NativeStyle property to True to apply the operating system-dependent style to an individual DevExpress control. Skins and deprecated look & feel styles have no effect on a control that uses the native style.
Tip
We recommend that you use a skin controller component’s NativeStyle property to enable or disable the native style at the global level to ensure consistent appearance of all DevExpress controls in an application.
The NativeStyle property’s setter adds the lfvNativeStyle flag to the AssignedValues property value once the change is applied to the control outside a BeginUpdate/EndUpdate block or after an EndUpdate procedure call.
The NativeStyle property’s default value is the cxDefaultLookAndFeelNativeStyle global constant.
