Add style to Style Manager

BarbaraSchneider1 — Thu, 30 Apr 2015 11:35:51 GMT

I would like to add a style to the Style Manager using ArcObjects. I guess this is done using IStyleImporter.Import. However, I haven't found a sample how to get a StyleImporter object. I tried to cocreate it, but it isn't possible. Can anyone help?

Haven't tried it, but what about the StyleGallery ?

e.g.

...

var mxDocument = application.Document as IMxDocument;

var styleGallery = mxDocument.StyleGallery;

styleGallery.LoadStyle(filename, null);

or,

var styleGalleryStorage = mxDocument.StyleGallery as IStyleGalleryStorage;

styleGalleryStorage.AddFile(filename);

Thanks, Chris!

IStyleGalleryStorage.AddFile() is used to add a style to Style Manager.

IStyleGallery.LoadStyle() is used to load a style from Style Gallery that is already present in Style Manager.
