Hello,
Unfortunately, the Save As and Open As dialogs are from the OS. I think that's why it isn't applied. Those are not dialogs from the application directly. Do you have more examples? We have updated the UI framework in 2026.3, but I think we will have the same limitation.

Thanks @David Hervieux

The Windows OS itself has drop shadow turned off, for now I have only seen this in the Save As dialog box. At the moment I can't remember if this was the same in previous version..

Sorry just seen this, also shows in the Yes/No dialog box


I have checked many other windows, does not appear in them..

Thank you. This is our old DevExpress UI framework. I can't find a fix since we moved away from it, but in the latest version, it should honor the OS settings. Since you are using a portable version, could you give it a try?

Thanks,

I checked, it uses Windows Open/Save Dialog box, that should do it..

Thanks again @David Hervieux
