Object Type	Path to AppearanceGroupCaption
DataLayoutControl	.OptionsPrint.AppearanceGroupCaption
LayoutControl	.OptionsPrint.AppearanceGroupCaption

Remarks

By default, a printed LayoutControl utilizes the same appearance for group captions as when they are displayed on screen. However, in the default printing mode (when OptionsPrintControl.OldPrinting is disabled), you can specify group caption print appearance settings, which are only used when the Layout Control is printed and exported.

The AppearanceGroupCaption property allows you to customize appearance settings of all layout group captions in a centralized way. Print appearances set for a specific group (OptionsPrintGroup.AppearanceGroupCaption) will override the parent print appearances.

The AppearanceGroupCaption property is not supported if the OptionsPrintControl.OldPrinting property is set to true.
