Use the GlyphAlignment property to specify the horizontal alignment of the glyph representing a check box within a check editor. This property also affects the editor’s caption text alignment. If the GlyphAlignment property is set to Center , the caption text is hidden and only the check box is displayed.
Assigning a new value for the GlyphAlignment property at runtime generates the RepositoryItem.PropertiesChanged event.
The following images demonstrate the check box aligned to the center and to the right respectively.
You can also specify the vertical alignment of the glyph using the BaseRepositoryItemCheckEdit.GlyphVAlignment property.
The following code snippet (auto-collected from DevExpress Examples) contains a reference to the GlyphAlignment property.
