Customizing the Renderers

You can customize the renderers used to create the default styles.

The Office2013 or Office2016 style uses the FlatCornerHeaderRenderer, FlatColumnHeaderRenderer, FlatRowHeaderRenderer, FlatScrollBarRenderer, and FlatFocusIndicatorRenderer classes.

Example of default renderer

The default style uses the ColumnHeaderDefaultEnhanced, CornerDefaultEnhanced, CornerFooterDefaultEnhanced, FilterBarDefaultEnhanced, and RowHeaderDefaultEnhanced fields.

The Office2007 style uses the EnhancedCornerRenderer, EnhancedFocusIndicatorRenderer, EnhancedColumnHeaderRenderer, EnhancedScrollBarRenderer, and EnhancedRowHeaderRenderer classes.

Example of customized renderer

The classic style uses the ColumnHeaderRenderer, RowHeaderRenderer, and CornerRenderer classes.

Using Code

Create a new renderer and set the renderer properties.
Set the renderer for the default style area such as column footer.
Apply the new corner styles to the control.

Example

This example code customizes the renderers for the column header and footer, row header, corner header, and corner footer.

//header/footer column
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ColumnFooter.Visible = true;
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ColumnFooter.RowCount = 3;
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ColumnHeader.RowCount = 3;
FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatColumnHeaderRenderer flatcolumnheader = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatColumnHeaderRenderer();
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ColumnHeader.DefaultStyle.Renderer = flatcolumnheader;
FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatColumnFooterRenderer flatcolumnfooter = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatColumnFooterRenderer();
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ColumnFooter.DefaultStyle.Renderer = flatcolumnfooter;

//header row
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.RowHeader.ColumnCount = 3;
FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatRowHeaderRenderer flatrowheader = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatRowHeaderRenderer();
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.RowHeader.DefaultStyle.Renderer = flatrowheader;

//sheet corner header render
FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatCornerHeaderRenderer flatconrnerheader = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.FlatCornerHeaderRenderer();
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SheetCorner.DefaultStyle.Renderer = flatconrnerheader;

//sheet corner footer render
FarPoint.Win.Spread.SpreadSkin a1 = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.SpreadSkin(FarPoint.Win.Spread.DefaultSpreadSkins.Default);
a1.Apply(fpSpread1);
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ColumnFooter.Visible = true;
