Use

This property is useful if you wish to give focus to a specific control, for instance a frequently used command button, on your form. The advantage of using the UseSecondaryColor property over the BackColor property, is that it provides a consistent accent color which is simple to change throughout your application, should you wish to in the future.

Use of the UseSecondaryColor property to give focus to the 'Check stock' button.

The settings for boolean are:

Setting	Description
True	Any material color in the control will be rendered using the secondary color specified in the material skin settings.
False	(Default) Any material color in the control will be rendered using the primary secondary color specified in the material skin settings.
