Style - BackgroundBrush Property

Brush to be used as the background

Member of Style (PRIM_VS.Style)

Data Type - PRIM_VS.Brush - Base class for all visual brushes

Details

The BackgroundBrush property is a reference to an instance of a Brush to be applied to the background of the control.
 
Background features of a Style are not inherited by child controls. This ensures that a background applied to a form or reusable part is not repeated verbatim on child controls.
 
As Panels and Labels are transparent by default, it is often only necessary to define the background of the main page.
 
If both a BackgroundBrush and NormBackColor are specified on the same style, the BackgroundBrush will take precedence.

Example

This example shows the definition of a simple style with a background Linear Brush.
