Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property ExpandedNodeAppearance As Infragistics.Win.AppearanceBase
public Infragistics.Win.AppearanceBase ExpandedNodeAppearance {get; set;}
Remarks

ExpandedNodeAppearance determines how the node appears when it is Expanded.

Example
The following sample code illustrates how to specify the appearance of nodes.
