Group box properties
General
Group boxes are containers that can hold other controls, such as the
group box
that shows information about contacts, or the group box that shows information
about an address. Group boxes typically have a
button that
users can click to minimize and maximize the group box.
Whenever you add a control collection, Infor Public Sector uses a group box control in the ascx page that it generates to contain all of the controls for that collection. When you add a group box, you must first add the group box control to the page. You can then add any controls that you want in the group box, including other group boxes. The Page Editor treats a group box and all of the controls inside it as a single control when you move the group box around.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| ID (advanced) | Identification code for the group box. Infor Public Sector automatically generates an identification code for each control you add in the Page Editor. Although you can change these identification codes, we recommend that you use the default values. |

To add buttons to the header, you must first define one or more Button controls, taking note of their IDs, and then place them in the group box. You can then specify their IDs in the HeaderButtonStrings property, separated by commas with no spaces. The specified buttons will be displayed in the header, separated by the number of pixels indicated in the HeaderButtonOffset property. |
