Provides access to members that set a default property on an object.
Product Availability
Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.
When To Use
IPropertySupport is a generic interface implemented by most graphic elements and few other objects. IPropertySupport is used for updating generic properties of an object; it can be used by a client without the client needing to know the exact nature of the underlying class. Through IPropertySupport you can ask an object if another object applies to it (for instance, a color object). If the object does apply, you can apply a new object of that type or ask for the current object.

Remarks
For FeatureLayer objects, the ArcGIS
framework uses this interface to check to see if the specified
display filter object can be applied to the layer.
Applies indicates whether the specified display
filter object can be applied generally, while
CanApply indicates whether the specified display
filter object can be applied at that particular moment.
Current returns the current display filter.
FeatureLayer objects also uses
IPropertySupport to manage some renderer objects.
