Method XbpActiveXControl():inheritPresParams() Foundation
Inherits presentation parameters defined by control container's parent object
:inheritPresParams() --> lSuccessThe method :inheritPresParams() returns a logical value indicating success of the operation. It returns the value .T. (true) if inheriting the parent object's presentation parameters succeeded. Otherwise, :inheritPresParams() returns .F. (false).
The following table lists the presentation parameters supported by :inheritPresParams(). The presentation parameters inherited by method :inheritPresParams() define the default value for the corresponding ActiveX control property (so-called Ambient Property). The table also lists the methods that can be used to override the defaults inherited from the container's parent object.

|---|---|---|
| XBP_PP_BGCLR | :setColorBG() | Container background color |
| XBP_PP_FGCLR | :setColorFG() | Container foreground color |

| XBP_PP_COMPOUNDNAME | :setFontCompoundName() | Container font, specified as a font compound name |
Not all ActiveX controls support adapting themselves to the property values of their control containers (so-called ambient properties). Please check your control's documentation to find out whether the control supports this feature.
:inheritPresParams() is automatically called during creation of an XbpActiveXControl instance. Normally, Xbase++ applications do not need to call this method directly.
