The SeparatorStyle.HighProfile style now draws itself in the expected colors and with grab handles showing.

Here you can see two instances of the KryptonSplitContainer where the separator style has been changed from the default of LowProfile to the HighProfile setting. The top splitter is in a horizontal orientation and the bottom splitter in a vertical orientation.

It draws a maximum of 5 grab handles in the center of the separator area as long as there is enough room to show them. There is a gotcha though that you need to be aware of if you want to see the grab handles in your application.

By default the split container has a separator width of 4 pixels. At this setting there is not enough room to show the grab handles and so you will only get the dark blue colors. You need to alter the separator width to 5 or more pixels so that hte grab handles are drawn.
