Group Object

Parents, Children, Properties, Methods, Events

Purpose: This object is used to group a related set of controls together visually, and to impose "radio-button" behaviour.

Description

A Group is displayed as an empty box with a border around it whose appearance is defined by the EdgeStyle property. The Caption property defines a string of text that is displayed in the top left border. The default value is an empty vector.

A Group will be resized if its parent Form or Group is resized. It can also be resized directly by the user if its Sizeable property is set to 1. By default, when a Group is resized, it automatically adjusts the size and position of its children to maintain the same proportions within it as before. The resizing of a Group and its children can be controlled using the AutoConf property or by enabling the Configure event (31).
