Remarks

The InstructionTextStyle property defines the appearance of explanatory text in the PasswordRecovery control. This property is read-only; however, you can set the properties of the Style object it returns. You can set the properties declaratively in the form Property-Subproperty, where Subproperty represents a property of the Style class (for example, InstructionTextStyle-ForeColor). You can also set the properties programmatically in the form Property.Subproperty (for example, InstructionTextStyle.ForeColor).

Common settings include custom background color, text color, and font properties. The InstructionTextStyle property defines the appearance of the following properties:

Style settings made to the InstructionTextStyle property are merged with the style settings for the PasswordRecovery control. Any settings made in the InstructionTextStyle property override the corresponding settings in properties of the PasswordRecovery control.

The following PasswordRecovery control properties are overridden by InstructionTextStyle properties:

When you use templates to define the appearance of the PasswordRecovery control's UserName view or Question view, the InstructionTextStyle property has no effect.
