Hello Jim,

If you have to get the default Font name from the Items in your Groups you could use the Michael Saltzman's suggestion :

     AppearanceData appearanceData = new AppearanceData();
                AppearancePropFlags appearancePropFlags = AppearancePropFlags.FontData;
                         
                this.ultraExplorerBar1.Groups[0].Items[0].ResolveAppearance(ref appearanceData, ref appearancePropFlags);

                Font baseFont = this.ultraExplorerBar1.Font;
                Font createdFont = null;
                Font itemFont;

                try
                {
                    createdFont = appearanceData.CreateFont(baseFont);
                    itemFont = createdFont != null ? createdFont : baseFont;
                    Debug.WriteLine(itemFont.Name);
                }
                finally
                {
                    if (createdFont != null)
                        createdFont.Dispose();
                }

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions.

Hi Danko,

I have not yet been able to test the suggested code. I resolved the issue by setting the FontData of the ExplorerBarGroups to a default font at runtime if the user has not changed the font. It works and I had to move on to other stuff.

I'll definitely keep the code reference above in case I need to do something similar at a later date.

Thanks!

Jim
