From the Edge: Understanding Group Bar Control in Form Designer Section: Forms and Form Designer Chapter: Running R:BASE Your Way! Platform: R:BASE 7.1 for Windows Build: 7.1.71.303xx and higher Pursuing the goal of providing our loyal and dedicated R:BASE Users/Developers with the tools they need to compete, develop and deploy applications with boundless possibilities at a fraction of the cost and development time when compared to other databases and development tools available, a few new controls have been added in R:BASE 7.1 for Windows Form Designer.
The Additional Controls in Form Designer now includes a new Group Bar control to add yet another option to design and deploy cool menu-driven applications.
Use Group Bar to create a collection of user interface command groups. A command group typically contains a list of clickable items that invoke commands. Typical examples of group bars include the navigational bar (i.e. Outlook Bar) in Microsoft Outlook and the category view in Windows XP's Control Panel (also called the Explorer Bar). Another example of a group bar is the Task List view in Microsoft Office XP. Group Bar is a single control that supports all of these types of display styles. In particular, the Style property can be set to Category View, Task List, and Outlook. The default is set to Category View.
