+
+
+The QGroupBox widget provides a group box frame with a title.
+<p>
+
+
+
+<p> A group box provides a frame, a title and a keyboard shortcut, and
+displays various other widgets inside itself. The title is on top,
+the keyboard shortcut moves <a href="focus.html#keyboard-focus">keyboard focus</a> to one of the group
+box's child widgets, and the child widgets are usually laid out
+horizontally (or vertically) inside the frame.
+<p> The simplest way to use it is to create a group box with the
+desired number of columns (or rows) and orientation, and then just
+create widgets with the group box as parent.
+<p> It is also possible to change the <a href="#orientation">orientation</a>() and number of
+<a href="#columns">columns</a>() after construction, or to ignore all the automatic
+layout support and manage the layout yourself. You can add 'empty'
+spaces to the group box with <a href="#addSpace">addSpace</a>().
+<p> QGroupBox also lets you set the <a href="#title">title</a>() (normally set in the
+constructor) and the title's <a href="#alignment">alignment</a>().
+<p> You can change the spacing used by the group box with
+<a href="#setInsideMargin">setInsideMargin</a>() and <a href="#setInsideSpacing">setInsideSpacing</a>(). To minimize space
+consumption, you can remove the right, left and bottom edges of
+the frame with <a href="#setFlat">setFlat</a>().

+</h3>
+Constructs a group box titled <em>title</em>. Child widgets will be

+Destroys the group box.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="addSpace"></a>QGroupBox::addSpace ( int&nbsp;size )

+Adds an empty cell at the next free position. If <em>size</em> is

+<a href="qt.html#Orientation-enum">Vertical</a>).
+<p> Use this method to separate the widgets in the group box or to
+skip the next free cell. For performance reasons, call this method
+after calling <a href="#setColumnLayout">setColumnLayout</a>() or by changing the <a href="#columns-prop">QGroupBox::columns</a> or <a href="#orientation-prop">QGroupBox::orientation</a> properties. It is
+generally a good idea to call these methods first (if needed at
+all), and insert the widgets and spaces afterwards.

+
+<hr><h2>Property Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn>Alignment <a name="alignment-prop"></a>alignment</h3>
+<p>This property holds the alignment of the group box title.
+<p>The title is always placed on the upper frame line. The horizontal
+alignment can be specified by the alignment parameter.
+<p> The alignment is one of the following flags:
+<ul>
+<li> <a href="qt.html#AlignmentFlags-enum">AlignAuto</a> aligns the title according to the language,
+usually to the left.
+<li> <a href="qt.html#AlignmentFlags-enum">AlignLeft</a> aligns the title text to the left.
+<li> <a href="qt.html#AlignmentFlags-enum">AlignRight</a> aligns the title text to the right.
+<li> <a href="qt.html#AlignmentFlags-enum">AlignHCenter</a> aligns the title text centered.
+</ul>
+<p> The default alignment is <a href="qt.html#AlignmentFlags-enum">AlignAuto</a>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="qt.html#AlignmentFlags-enum">Qt::AlignmentFlags</a>.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setAlignment">setAlignment</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#alignment">alignment</a>().
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="checkable-prop"></a>checkable</h3>
+<p>This property holds whether the group box has a checkbox in its title.
+<p>If this property is TRUE, the group box has a checkbox. If the
+checkbox is checked (which is the default), the group box's
+children are enabled.
+<p> <a href="#setCheckable">setCheckable</a>() controls whether or not the group box has a
+checkbox, and <a href="#isCheckable">isCheckable</a>() controls whether the checkbox is
+checked or not.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setCheckable">setCheckable</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#isCheckable">isCheckable</a>().
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="checked-prop"></a>checked</h3>
+<p>This property holds whether the group box's checkbox is checked.
+<p>If the group box has a check box (see <a href="#isCheckable">isCheckable</a>()), and the
+check box is checked (see <a href="#isChecked">isChecked</a>()), the group box's children
+are enabled. If the checkbox is unchecked the children are
+disabled.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setChecked">setChecked</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#isChecked">isChecked</a>().
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="columns-prop"></a>columns</h3>
+<p>This property holds the number of columns or rows (depending on <a href="#orientation-prop">QGroupBox::orientation</a>) in the group box.
+<p>Usually it is not a good idea to set this property because it is
+slow (it does a complete layout). It is best to set the number
+of columns directly in the constructor.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setColumns">setColumns</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#columns">columns</a>().
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="flat-prop"></a>flat</h3>
+<p>This property holds whether the group box is painted flat or has a frame.
+<p>By default a group box has a surrounding frame, with the title
+being placed on the upper frame line. In flat mode the right, left
+and bottom frame lines are omitted, and only the thin line at the
+top is drawn.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#title-prop">title</a>.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setFlat">setFlat</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#isFlat">isFlat</a>().
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qt.html#Orientation-enum">Orientation</a> <a name="orientation-prop"></a>orientation</h3>
+<p>This property holds the group box's orientation.
+<p>A horizontal group box arranges it's children in columns, while a
+vertical group box arranges them in rows.
+<p> Usually it is not a good idea to set this property because it is
+slow (it does a complete layout). It is better to set the
+orientation directly in the constructor.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setOrientation">setOrientation</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#orientation">orientation</a>().
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="title-prop"></a>title</h3>
+<p>This property holds the group box title text.
+<p>The group box title text will have a focus-change keyboard
+accelerator if the title contains &amp;, followed by a letter.
+<p> <pre>
+ g-&gt;setTitle( "&amp;User information" );
+ </pre>
+
+This produces "<u>U</u>ser information"; Alt+U moves the <a href="focus.html#keyboard-focus">keyboard focus</a> to the group box.
+<p> There is no default title text.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setTitle">setTitle</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#title">title</a>().
