CharacterPropertiesBase.Reset(CharacterPropertiesMask) Method

Resets the character formatting properties specified by the mask to the properties of the underlying character style or to default properties.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v18.2.Core.dll

Declaration

void Reset(
    CharacterPropertiesMask mask
)

Parameters

Name Type Description
mask CharacterPropertiesMask

A CharacterPropertiesMask enumeration value.

Remarks

The Reset sets character properties to the underlying style (or the default style, if the style is not applied). The mask allows you to specify character properties which will be reset.

The following code snippet modifies CharacterPropertiesBase.FontSize and CharacterPropertiesBase.FontName properties. These properties are reset to Document.DefaultCharacterProperties values if no specific character style is applied. Other character properties remain unchanged.

document.LoadDocument("Grimm.docx", DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.DocumentFormat.OpenXml)
' Set font size and font name of the characters in the first paragraph to default. 
' Other character properties remain intact.
Dim range As DocumentRange = document.Paragraphs(0).Range
Dim cp As CharacterProperties = document.BeginUpdateCharacters(range)
cp.Reset(CharacterPropertiesMask.FontSize Or CharacterPropertiesMask.FontName)
document.EndUpdateCharacters(cp)
