Glossary Item Box

Gets the direct style for the specified cell, column, row, or model default.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetDirectInfo( _
   ByVal row As Integer, _
   ByVal column As Integer, _
   ByVal destInfo As StyleInfo _
) As StyleInfo
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As ISheetStyleModel
Dim row As Integer
Dim column As Integer
Dim destInfo As StyleInfo
Dim value As StyleInfo
 
value = instance.GetDirectInfo(row, column, destInfo)
C# 
StyleInfo GetDirectInfo( 
   int row,
   int column,
   StyleInfo destInfo
)

Parameters

row
Row index of the cell in the model, or -1 to specify an entire column or the model default
column
Column index of the cell in the model, or -1 to specify an entire row or the model default
destInfo
Style set (StyleInfo object) to use for getting the style; if destInfo is null then a new StyleInfo is created and used

Return Value

StyleInfo object containing the style information

Remarks

"Direct" in the style model means "not composite" or "not inherited." This method, GetDirectInfo, returns the style properties that have been set for the specified cell, column, or row directly and does not return any settings that ar set for higher levels (like the entire model), while GetCompositeInfo returns the style properties "composed" or "merged" into one StyleInfo object that contains all the settings to paint and edit the cell, column, or row, including inherited settings.

Alternating row styles are not included in this method.GetDirectAltRowInfo returns the alternating row style information.

If destInfo is null, then a new StyleInfo object is created and used.

In terms of precedence of styles, direct cell styles override direct row styles, which override direct column styles, which override model default styles.

In terms of allowed values, for a direct row style, use -1 for the entire column; for a direct column style, use -1 for the entire row; and for a model default style, use -1 for all the rows and columns.

Example

This example sets and returns the direct style for the specified cell, column, row, or model default.
