How to: Group Controls with the Windows Forms GroupBox Control
Windows Forms xref:System.Windows.Forms.GroupBox controls are used to group other controls. There are three reasons to group controls:
-
To create a visual grouping of related form elements for a clear user interface.
-
To create programmatic grouping (of radio buttons, for example).
-
For moving the controls as a unit at design time.
To create a group of controls
-
Draw a xref:System.Windows.Forms.GroupBox control on a form.
-
Add other controls to the group box, drawing each inside the group box.
If you have existing controls that you want to enclose in a group box, you can select all the controls, cut them to the Clipboard, select the xref:System.Windows.Forms.GroupBox control, and then paste them into the group box. You can also drag them into the group box.
-
Set the xref:System.Windows.Forms.GroupBox.Text%2A property of the group box to an appropriate caption.
