Installer documentation |
A GroupBox control is used to frame a number of closely related other controls in a dialog box. Its effect is only visual; there is no parent/child relationship between the GroupBox control and the controls that it encloses.
The Tarma Installer equivalent is the GroupBox
control.
This pane contains the following attributes and options.
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| Control name | Enter the name of the control. This name has no special significance, but it must be unique among all controls of its parent dialog or billboard. |
| Caption | Enter the text to display as the control's caption. |
| Help text | Enter text for display in help tooltips. |
| Font |
Select the font style for the text in the control by clicking ... (browse) to open the Select Font Style dialog. |
| Visible |
Check this box to make the control initially visible; clear it to hide the control. You can change the visibility status of the control at installation time by using Control conditions. |
| Sunken | Check this box to make the control appear sunken; clear it to display it flush with its parent dialog or billboard. A sunken control has a simulated 3D border. |
| Right align | Check this box to display the caption text right-aligned in the GroupBox' frame; clear the box to make it left-aligned. |
| Don't mirror | Check this box to keep the control's orientation as it is and not mirror it for languages that use a right-to-left (RTL) order; clear it to mirror the control if the parent dialog is mirrored for RTL languages. This option only has effect for languages that use an RTL reading order, such as Arabic and Hebrew; for other languages it is ignored. |
