3 Laying Out GUIs and Setting Properties
3-16
You can use the Object Browser to determine the child objects of a panel or
button group. “Viewing the Object Hierarchy — The Object Browser” on
page 3-56 tells you how.
Adding an ActiveX Control
When you drag an ActiveX component from the component palette into the
layout area, GUIDE opens a dialog that lists all the registered ActiveX controls
on your system. When you select an ActiveX control and click
Create, the
control appears as a small box in the Layout Editor.
Note The available ActiveX controls vary on different systems. An ActiveX
control can be the child of a figure only. It cannot be the child of a panel or
button group.
