DependencyObject.ClearValue Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Clears the local value of a dependency property.

Namespace:  System.Windows
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub ClearValue ( _
    dp As DependencyProperty _
)
public void ClearValue(
    DependencyProperty dp
)

Parameters

Remarks

Clearing the property value by calling ClearValue does not necessarily give a dependency property its default value. Clearing the property only specifically clears whatever local value may have been applied, but other factors in dependency property precedence (such as styles, or an animation) might still be applying a value. For more information on the value precedence concept, see Dependency Property Value Precedence.

Examples

The following example checks for an existing local value with ReadLocalValue. If there is a local value, as indicated by not returning UnsetValue, then the existing local value is removed by calling ClearValue.

public static bool ClearSetProperty(DependencyObject targetObject, DependencyProperty targetDP)
{
    if (targetObject == null || targetDP == null)
    {
        throw new ArgumentNullException();
    }
    object localValue = targetObject.ReadLocalValue(targetDP);
    if (localValue == DependencyProperty.UnsetValue)
    {
        return false;
    }
    else
    {
        targetObject.ClearValue(targetDP);
        return true;
    }
}
