   ByVal o As Object, _
   ByVal destInfo As StyleInfo _
) As StyleInfo

'Usage
 
Dim instance As NamedStyleCollection
Dim o As Object
Dim destInfo As StyleInfo
Dim value As StyleInfo
 
value = instance.Compose(o, destInfo)

public StyleInfo Compose( 
   object o,
   StyleInfo destInfo
)

Parameters

o: Style (NamedStyle object)
destInfo: Destination for the composed StyleInfo object or creates a new StyleInfo object if Null

Return Value

StyleInfo object with the composed properties of the current NamedStyle object and the specified object

Remarks

The object specified by the o parameter is combined with the current named style into an existing style or into a new StyleInfo object. The composition process uses the collection to resolve parent references.

Example

This example composes a new custom style, using an existing style.

FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyleCollection nsc = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyleCollection();
FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle ns = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle("HeaderData", "HeaderDefault");
FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle o;
ns.BackColor = Color.Teal;
ns.Border = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.Border(BorderStyle.Double, Color.Red);
o = nsc.Compose(ns, ns);
nsc.Add(o);
FpSpread1.NamedStyles.Add(nsc[0]);
FpSpread1.ActiveSheetView.ColumnHeader.DefaultStyle = nsc[0];

Visual Basic

Dim nsc As New FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyleCollection
Dim ns As New FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle("HeaderData", "HeaderDefault")
Dim o As FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle
ns.BackColor = Color.Teal
ns.Border = New FarPoint.Web.Spread.Border(BorderStyle.Double, Color.Red)
o = nsc.Compose(ns, ns)
