You can also call the WindowsFormsSettings.ForceDirectXPaint method at the application’s startup to enable the DirectX Hardware Acceleration for all compatible DevExpress controls in the application.

Note

Only modify the UseDirectXPaint setting before the control’s handle is created. For instance, you can do this at design time, or in the form’s constructor.
