BaseView.ActivePaintStyleName Property

public string ActivePaintStyleName { get; }

Public ReadOnly Property ActivePaintStyleName As String

Property value

The ActivePaintStyleName property returns the name of the currently applied painting scheme.

A View's painting scheme is controlled by the PaintStyleName property. The Grid Control provides a number of painting schemes: "Default", "Flat", "UltraFlat", "Office2003", "Web", etc. If the PaintStyleName property is set to any value other than the "Default" string the View will be painted using the corresponding painting scheme and the ActivePaintStyleName property will return the same value as the PaintStyleName property.

If the PaintStyleName property is set to "Default" the painting scheme is determined by the grid control's look and feel settings (the GridControl.LookAndFeel property) and the ActivePaintStyleName property returns the name of the painting scheme exposed by the grid's look and feel.
