Definition

Overloads

Name Description
GetAppearance(UITraitCollection)

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for UIView.

GetAppearance(UITraitCollection, Type[])

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for UIView.

GetAppearance<T>()

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for the subclass of UIView.

GetAppearance<T>(UITraitCollection)

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for the subclass of UIView.

GetAppearance<T>(UITraitCollection, Type[])

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for the subclass of UIView.

GetAppearance(UITraitCollection)

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for UIView.

public static UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance GetAppearance(UIKit.UITraitCollection traits);
static member GetAppearance : UIKit.UITraitCollection -> UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance

Parameters

traits
UITraitCollection

Trait collection to match.

Returns

An appearance proxy object for the specified type.

Remarks

The following example shows how this method works:

var myTraits = new UITraitCollection ();
var myTheme = UIView.GetAppearance (myTraits);
myTheme.TintColor = UIColor.Red;

If developers want to control the appearance of subclasses of UIView, they should use the GetAppearance<T>(UITraitCollection) method.

For more information, see the documentation for the UIAppearance class.

Applies to

GetAppearance(UITraitCollection, Type[])

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for UIView.

public static UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance GetAppearance(UIKit.UITraitCollection traits, params Type[] containers);
static member GetAppearance : UIKit.UITraitCollection * Type[] -> UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance

Parameters

traits
UITraitCollection

Trait collection to match.

containers
Type[]

List of types that the developer wishes to have as the containers to apply this particular appearance.

Returns

An appearance proxy object for the specified type.

Remarks

The following example shows how this method works:

var myTraits = new UITraitCollection ();
var myTheme = UIView.GetAppearance (myTraits, typeof (UINavigationBar), typeof (UIPopoverController));
myTheme.TintColor = UIColor.Red;

If developers want to control the appearance of subclasses of UIView, they should use the GetAppearance<T>(UITraitCollection, Type[]) method.

For more information, see the documentation for the UIAppearance class.

Applies to

GetAppearance<T>()

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for the subclass of UIView.

public static UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance GetAppearance<T>() where T : UIKit.UIView;
static member GetAppearance : unit -> UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance (requires 'T :> UIKit.UIView)

Type Parameters

T

The type for which the UIAppearance proxy must be returned. This is a subclass of UIView.

Returns

An appearance proxy object for the specified type.

Remarks

Setting any appearance properties on the returned object will affect the appearance of all classes and subclasses of the type parameter.

Unlike the Appearance property, or the AppearanceWhenContainedIn(Type[]) method which only work on instances of this particular class, the proxies returned by this method can be used to change the style of subclasses.

The following example shows how this method works:

var myTheme = UIView.GetAppearance<MyUIViewSubclass> ();
myTheme.TintColor = UIColor.Red;

For more information, see the documentation for the UIAppearance class.

Applies to

GetAppearance<T>(UITraitCollection)

Obtains the appearance proxy UIView.UIViewAppearance for the subclass of UIView.

public static UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance GetAppearance<T>(UIKit.UITraitCollection traits) where T : UIKit.UIView;
static member GetAppearance : UIKit.UITraitCollection -> UIKit.UIView.UIViewAppearance (requires 'T :> UIKit.UIView)

Type Parameters

T

The type for which the UIAppearance proxy must be returned. This is a subclass of UIView.

Parameters

Returns

An appearance proxy object for the specified type.
