Class GridStyleInfoSubObject
GridStyleInfoSubObject is an abstract base class for classes to be used as sub-objects in a GridStyleInfo.

Assembly: Syncfusion.Grid.Windows.dll
Syntax
public abstract class GridStyleInfoSubObject : StyleInfoSubObjectBase, ICustomTypeDescriptor, IDisposable, IStyleInfo, ISupportInitialize, IFormattable, IConvertible, IXmlSerializable, IStyleInfoSubObjectRemarks
GridStyleInfoSubObject is derived from StyleInfoBase and thus provides the same easy way to provide properties that can inherit values from base styles at run-time.
The difference is that GridStyleInfoSubObject supports this inheritance mechanism as a sub-object from a GridStyleInfo. A sub-object needs to have knowledge about its parent object and be able to walk the base styles from the parent object.
Examples for implementation of GridStyleInfoSubObject are the font and border classes in Essential Grid.
Programmers can derive their own style classes from GridStyleInfoSubObject and add type-safe (and intelli-sense) supported custom properties to the style class. If you write your own SpinButton class that needs individual properties, simply add a CellSpinButtonInfo class as subobject. If you derive CellSpinButtonInfo from GridStyleInfoSubObject, your new object will support property inheritance from base styles.
See the overview for StyleInfoBase for further discussion about style objects.
Examples
The following example shows how you can use the GridFontInfo class in Essential Grid:
standard.Font.Facename = "Helvetica";
model[1, 3].Font.Bold = true;
string faceName = model[1, 3].Font.Facename; // any cell inherits standard style
Console.WriteLIne(faceName); // will output "Helvetica"
Console.WriteLIne(model[1, 3].Font.Bold); // will output "true"
Console.WriteLIne(model[1, 3].Font.HasFaceName); // will output "False"Constructors
GridStyleInfoSubObject(StyleInfoStore)
Initalizes a new instance of GridStyleInfoSubObject class and associates it with an existing StyleInfoStore.
Declaration

| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| StyleInfoStore | store | A StyleInfoStore that holds data for this object. All changes in this style object will be saved in the StyleInfoStore object. |
GridStyleInfoSubObject(StyleInfoSubObjectIdentity, StyleInfoStore)
Initalizes a new instance of GridStyleInfoSubObject class and associates it with an existing StyleInfoStore.
Declaration
public GridStyleInfoSubObject(StyleInfoSubObjectIdentity identity, StyleInfoStore store)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| StyleInfoSubObjectIdentity | identity | A StyleInfoSubObjectIdentity that holds the indentity for this StyleInfoBase. A StyleInfoStore that holds data for this object. All changes in this style object will saved in the StyleInfoStore object. |
