Type	Description
Color

The accent color.

Remarks

Use the SetAccentColor and SetAccentColor2 methods to specify custom accent colors.

If the TrackWindowsAccentColor option is enabled and a custom accent color is specified, the custom accent color takes priority over the system accent color.

The following example demonstrates how to obtain the system accent color:

C#
VB.NET

csharp

using System.Drawing;
using DevExpress.Utils.Drawing.Helpers;

Color systemAccentColor = NativeMethods.GetWindowsAccentColor();

Imports System.Drawing
Imports DevExpress.Utils.Drawing.Helpers

Private systemAccentColor As Color = NativeMethods.GetWindowsAccentColor()

Note

“The Bezier” skin supports the second accent color. Other skins do not support the second accent color.

Use the SetAccentColor2 method to specify the second accent color.
