The "Group" control element is a container for other control elements. The Group can be used to visually group control elements, e.g. by defining a heading and a frame or a background colour. Switching the group visible/invisible also automatically affects the controls it contains.

The Group supports the following functionality:

Automatic positioning of the included control elements as in FlexLayout
Display of a language-switchable heading in the control element
Display of a language-switchable subtitle in the control element
Connection to the user administration for blocking operability
Display of the background, the frame, the shadow, etc.
Color display of the background, frame, text, etc., also depending on the status of the control element

You can configure these functionalities via the properties in the Properties window when you select the control in the Designer or in the document outline.

There are no system styles available for the layout container. You can create your own styles for the control element. These styles are available for selection in the "Style" property after creation.

The Group contains three elements: "Title", "Subtitle" and "GroupContainer". Control elements that are placed on the Group are added to the Group as sub-elements of the GroupContainer.
