The jContainer
control is analogous to the .Net Framework's Panel control but has a much more rich appearance and a few additional features.
Its primary purpose is to serve as a hosting container for jControls when placed on a generic Form
.
Adding jControls directly to the default Windows Form
will not expose the Form
through the jControls' transparent pixels. To overcome that limitation, jControls can be placed in a jContainer, and will appear correctly.
See Hosting jControls for more information.
Like the .Net Framework's Panel control, jContainer
can also be used to group controls.
The Fill
and Border
properties are used to color the interior of the control and the perimeter of the control, respectively. For more information, please see Fills, Strokes, and Borders.
jContainer
employs the same text features used by many of the other controls in the jControls CF35 library including ForeColor
, TextOffset
, TextAlignment
, and TextWrap
. See Text Features for more information.
