The visual attribute object contains all of the properties that determine font and color. These properties are useful in that they let you create and apply look and feel standards to multiple objects throughout your applications. A visual attribute called STD_TEXT_ITEMS might have its properties set as its Foreground Color black, Font Name Arial, and so on. If you were to apply this visual attribute to an item, it would inherit these property values, making its Foreground Color black, Font Name Arial, and so on. Visual attributes can be applied to physical objects like items, frames, canvases, windows, LOVs, and alerts. They cannot be applied to logical objects like blocks or record groups since those objects have no color or font properties.
