Returns whether an appearance property has been set.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Overridable Function IsDefined( _ ByVal prop As AppearanceProperty _ ) As Boolean

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim instance As Appearance Dim prop As AppearanceProperty Dim value As Boolean value = instance.IsDefined(prop)

C#
public virtual bool IsDefined( AppearanceProperty prop )

Parameters

prop: AppearanceProperty object containing the appearance property

Return Value

Boolean: true if property is set; false otherwise

Remarks

Use this method to check if one of the appearance properties has been set for the object. For a list of the properties, see the AppearanceProperty class list of members.

Example

This example creates two Appearance objects and a Cell object. Several properties are set for the first Appearance object, and they are subsequently copied to the second instance. The properties are then applied from the second Appearance object to the Cell objects corresponding properties. The BackColor property of the Appearance object is then queried to see if it has been defined, and the result is returned to a text box.
