ContainerControl.OnFontChanged(EventArgs) Method

Definition

Raises the FontChanged event.

protected:
 override void OnFontChanged(EventArgs ^ e);
protected override void OnFontChanged (EventArgs e);
override this.OnFontChanged : EventArgs -> unit
Protected Overrides Sub OnFontChanged (e As EventArgs)

Parameters

e
EventArgs

An EventArgs that contains the event data.

Remarks

Changing the font used by a ContainerControl will cause the layout to be recalculated and reapplied to the contained controls if the AutoScaleMode property has a value of Font.

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Handling and Raising Events.

The OnFontChanged method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors

When overriding OnFontChanged(EventArgs) in a derived class, be sure to call the base class' OnFontChanged(EventArgs) method so that registered delegates receive the event.
