Grouping Components
You can group two or more components together to modify them as a single unit. For
example, you might group a set of components after finalizing their relative positions, so
that you can move them without changing that relationship.
To group a set of components, select them in the canvas, and then select Grouping >
Group in the Arrange section of the toolstrip.
The Grouping tool also provides functionality for these common tasks:
- Ungroup all components in a group — Select the group. Then select Grouping >
Ungroup. - Add a component to a group — Select the component and the group. Then select
Grouping > Add to Group. - Remove a component from a group — Select the component. Then select Grouping >
Remove from Group.
Arranging Components in Containers
When you drag a component into a container such as a panel, the container turns blue to
indicate that the component is a child of the container. This process of placing
components into containers is called parenting.
