## FLgroup

FLgroup — A FLTK container opcode that groups child widgets.

## Description

A FLTK container opcode that groups child widgets.

## Syntax

    FLgroup "label", iwidth, iheight, ix, iy [, iborder] [, image]

## Initialization

“label” -- a double-quoted string containing some user-provided text, placed near the corresponding widget.

iwidth -- width of widget.

iheight -- height of widget.

ix -- horizontal position of upper left corner of the valuator, relative to the upper left corner of corresponding window (expressed in pixels).

iy -- vertical position of upper left corner of the valuator, relative to the upper left corner of corresponding window (expressed in pixels).

iborder (optional, default=0) -- border type of the container. It is expressed by means of an integer number chosen from the following:

- 0 - no border

- 1 - down box border

- 2 - up box border

- 3 - engraved border

- 4 - embossed border

- 5 - black line border

- 6 - thin down border

- 7 - thin up border

If the integer number does not match any of the previous values, no border is provided as the default.

image (optional) -- a handle referring to an eventual image opened with the bmopen opcode. If it is set, it allows a skin for that widget.

| Note about the bmopen opcode
Although the documentation mentions the bmopen opcode, it has not been implemented in Csound 4.22.

## Performance

Containers are useful to format the graphic appearance of the widgets. The most important container is FLpanel, that actually creates a window. It can be filled with other containers and/or valuators or other kinds of widgets.

There are no k-rate arguments in containers.
