Font Property (GridControl)

Gets or sets the font of the grid.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
<ApplyToDesignerAttribute(True)>
Public Overrides Property Font As Font

'Usage
 
Dim instance As GridControl
Dim value As Font
 
instance.Font = value
 
value = instance.Font

[ApplyToDesigner(true)]
public override Font Font {get; set;}

Property Value

A reference to a System.Drawing.Font object representing the font to use.

Remarks

Because the System.Drawing.Font object is immutable (meaning that you cannot adjust any of its properties), you can only assign the Font property a new Font object. However, you can base the new font on the existing font.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to adjust the font of the grid to make it bold:

Visual Basic

grid.Font = New Font( grid.Font, grid.Font.Style Or FontStyle.Bold )

grid.Font = new Font( grid.Font, grid.Font.Style | FontStyle.Bold );

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
