Remarks

This option is in effect when a skinning paint scheme is applied and the OptionsView.AllowItemSkinning property is set to true. If the HighlightFocusedItem option is set to true , the layout item that contains the focused control is specifically painted according to the current skin.

The image used to render focused layout items is retrieved from a skin, so you can use the Skin Editor utility to customize the image as required.
