'Declaration
 
Public Overridable Function GetDirectInfo( _
   ByVal row As Integer, _
   ByVal column As Integer, _
   ByVal destInfo As StyleInfo _
) As StyleInfo

'Usage
 
Dim instance As BaseSheetStyleModel
Dim row As Integer
Dim column As Integer
Dim destInfo As StyleInfo
Dim value As StyleInfo
 
value = instance.GetDirectInfo(row, column, destInfo)

public virtual 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

Destination StyleInfo object for getting the style; if null, then a new StyleInfo is created and used

Return Value

This implementation does nothing and returns null.

"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 are 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.
