The image used in the Glyph can contain upto 4 images, one for each state of the SpeedButton (up, down, disabled, selected).

The images are placed adjacent to each other in a single bitmap file that is used for the Glyph property of the SpeedButton. Use NumGlyphs to indicate how many images are used in the Glyph (eg. you can use only 2 or only 3 images).

Read the documentation on SpeedButton Glyph property.

The order is actually Up, Disabled, Clicked, Down. Having one image means it's used for all states, two are used for Up and Disabled, and so forth. The link to the most recent docs (which still applies to D7, as TSpeedButton hasn't changed much) is here. If only one image is provided, the VCL creates a masked version of it to use for the disabled state, which is often hidden (invisible) or only partially drawn. – Truda

This does not do the trick when the glyph comes from an action. I even have DisabledImages assigned on the action manager (which I have pointed to the same as the regular images), thus the Glyph gets automagically assigned. However, it does not accommodate for disabled images. Setting GlyphCount to 1 does nothing either. – Orthman
