### Description

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the page border surrounds the section's footer. If this property is set to true, the page border surrounds the footer, otherwise it surrounds only the text. This property only has a meaning, if the [MeasureFromText](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-winforms/reference/txtextcontrol/pageborder/measurefromtext-property/llms-full.txt) property has been set to true.

### Syntax

```csharp
public bool SurroundFooter { get; set; }
```

```vbnet
Public Property SurroundFooter As Boolean
```

### Examples

The following example configures the page border of the first document section by using `PageBorder.SurroundFooter`.

```csharp
PageBorder pageBorder = textControl.Sections[1].Format.PageBorder;

pageBorder.SurroundFooter = true;
if (pageBorder.SurroundFooter)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Page Border: Surround Footer is enabled.");
}
```

```vbnet
Dim pageBorder As PageBorder = textControl.Sections(1).Format.PageBorder

pageBorder.SurroundFooter = True
If pageBorder.SurroundFooter Then
    Console.WriteLine("Page Border: Surround Footer is enabled.")
End If
```

### Remarks

The property's default value is false.

The property returns its default value when the text selection contains multiple sections with mixed setting. The [Selection.IsCommonValueSelected](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-winforms/reference/txtextcontrol/selection/iscommonvalueselected-method/llms-full.txt) method can be used to check for mixed attributes.
