<var>TNotebook</var> is a control which can hold a series of pages order by 
their position in the list of pages. Only one page is shown at a time.
</p>
<p>
This control is entirely custom drawn, which means that it is available - and 
looks the same - in any widgetset which supports TCustomControl. The pages 
are containers which can hold other controls. The page control does 
<b>not</b> display a tab which indicates the active page. If you are looking 
for a control with tabs representing each of the pages, please see 
<var>TPageControl</var> instead.
</p>
<p>
To use a Notebook, select its icon from the 'Additional' tab of the Component 
Palette and place it on the Form. Adjust its size, position, alignment and 
anchoring as required, by moving the object on the Form or by using the 
Object Inspector.
</p>
<p>
Pages are added to the NoteBook by selecting the control and right-clicking 
with the mouse to get a pop-up menu whose first item is 'Add Page', or by 
using the Pages property editor in the Object Inspector. Pages already in the 
NoteBook can be edited by selecting the appropriate ActivePage in the Object 
Inspector and modifying its properties or adding additional components to the 
Page.

<descr>
<p>
<var>Pages</var> is a <var>TStrings</var> property which contains the page 
names and associated TPage instances for the pages defined for the notebook 
control.
</p>
<p>
When the component is created, a TUNPages instance is created and assigned to 
the property member. It provides overridden methods which maintain the TPage 
instance associated with a given page name. You can use the Pages property 
editor in the Object Inspector to maintain the page names and their TPage 
instances.
</p>
<p>
To add a page to Pages at run-time:
</p>
<code>
procedure TForm1.AddButtonClick(Sender: TObject);
var
  NewPageIndex: integer;
  NewPage: TPage;
  PageLabel: TLabel;
begin
  NewPageIndex := Notebook1.Pages.Add(Format('[Page %d]', [Notebook1.Pages.Count]));
  NewPage := Notebook1.Page[NewPageIndex];
  NewPage.Color := RgbToColor(Random(128)+127, Random(128)+127, Random(128)+127);
  PageLabel := TLabel.Create(Self);
  with PageLabel do
  begin
    Left := 20;
    Top := 10 + NewPageIndex * 20;
    Width := 500;
    Height := 20;
    Caption := Format('This is page [%d]',[NewPageIndex]);
    Parent := NewPage;
  end;
  Label1.Caption := IntToStr(Notebook1.PageCount)+ ' pages total';
end;
</code>
<p>
Use the indexed Page property to access the TPage instance for a given page 
by its ordinal position. Use PageIndex to set the active page in the notebook 
control by its ordinal position in Pages. For example:
</p>
<code>
procedure TForm1.PrevButtonClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
  if Notebook1.PageIndex &gt; 0 then
    Notebook1.PageIndex := Notebook1.PageIndex - 1;
end;

procedure TForm1.NextButtonClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
  if Notebook1.PageIndex &lt; Notebook1.PageCount-1 then
    Notebook1.PageIndex := Notebook1.PageIndex + 1;
end;
</code>
<p>
Assigning a new TStrings value to Pages causes the new page names to be 
compared to the existing internal page objects (TPage) in the notebook. New 
or altered pages are added or replaced in the notebook as needed. An existing 
page object not present in the new page names is deleted. The Application 
singleton is notified that the page object is being released and allowed to 
process the message.
</p>
<p>
A new value assigned to Pages is not stored at design-time. Use the Object 
Inspector to maintain the values in the property.

<var>TCustomSplitter</var> is a <var>TCustomControl</var> descendant which 
implements a control used to resize, position and align a control to which it 
is anchored. TCustomSplitter displays a vertical or a horizontal bar anchored 
to the side of another control. Use the <var>Align</var> property to specify 
the orientation for the splitter control, and the adjacent control to which 
it is attached. When the splitter is moved with the mouse, the adjacent 
control with the same Align value will be resized.
</p>
<p>
This class defines many of the basic properties for the children classes, 
such as positioning, sizing and alignment.

<short>
Implements the base class for <var>TImage</var>.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>TCustomImage</var> is a <var>TGraphicControl</var> descendent, and the 
base class for <var>TImage</var>. It is a lightweight and fast class used to 
display a graphic image using one of the image formats supported in the LCL. 
This includes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Bitmap</li>
<li>Pixmap</li>
<li>PNG</li>
<li>JPEG</li>
<li>GIF</li>
<li>TIFF</li>
<li>Icon</li>
</ul>
<p>
Use the Picture property to assign, load or save an image using one of the 
supported formats.
</p>
<p>
The Canvas property is used to render the graphic image in Picture, or to 
perform custom drawing operations on the image.
</p>
<p>
Use properties in the class instance to control how the image is rendered, 
including: <var>AntialiasingMode</var>, <var>Center</var>, 
<var>Stretch</var>, <var>Transparent</var>, and <var>Proportional</var>.
</p>
<p>
Do not create instances of TCustomImage; use the TImage descendant instead.
</p>
<p>
Use TImageList when a list of images with scaling capabilities is needed.

<descr>
<p>
<var>Paint</var> is an overridden procedure used to draw the image to the 
control <var>Canvas</var>. At design-time, a dashed black line is drawn 
around the image as a frame to mark the dimensions for its content.
</p>
<remark>
No additional actions are performed in the method when a <var>TGraphic</var> 
instance has not been assigned to the <var>Graphic</var> property in 
<var>Picture</var>.
</remark>
<p>
Paint uses the Canvas from the ancestor class as the target for the drawing 
operation. The value in <var>AntialiasingMode</var> is assigned to the 
corresponding property in the Canvas. The rectangle returned from    
<var>DestRect</var> is used as the drawing area.
</p>
<p>
Paint signals the <var>OnPaintBackground</var> event handler (when assigned) 
using the canvas and drawing rectangle to render the background for the 
image. The <var>StretchDraw</var> method in the Canvas is used to render the 
image content.
</p>
<p>
Paint calls the inherited method to ensure that the <var>OnPaint</var> event 
handler is signalled (when assigned).

</p>
<p>
Invalidate extends the ancestor method to include logic that reduces the 
number of calls to the <var>Paint</var> method, and avoids flicker caused by 
the redundant calls. It uses an internal flag in the class to determine if 
the Paint method has already been called, but has not yet been completed. If 
the flag has not been set, the inherited Invalidate method is called to 
refresh the control using its visibility and control style settings.

<p>
The <var>TPersistent</var> implementation of <var>Assign</var> does nothing 
but call the <link id="#rtl.Classes.TPersistent">AssignTo</link> method for 
the source. This means that if the destination class does not know how to 
assign the contents of the source class, the source class instance is asked 
to assign itself to the destination class. This means that it is necessary to 
implement only one of the two methods so that two classes can be assigned to 
one another.

<p>In general, a statement of the form:</p>
<code>
Destination:=Source;

<p>
<var>ItemIndex</var> is an <var>Integer</var> property with the ordinal 
position for the selected radio button in the group. It refers to the 
position in <var>Items</var> with the caption for the radio button. The 
default value for the property is <b>-1</b>, and indicates that a radio 
button is not selected for the group.
</p>
<p>
ItemIndex must be in the range <b>-1..<var>Items.Count</var>-1</b>. An 
Exception is raised with the message in rsIndexOutOfBounds if an invalid 
value is used.
</p>
<p>
When the value for the property is changed, the OnClick event handler is 
signalled (when assigned). In addition, the OnSelectionChanged is signalled 
(when assigned). Both events occur even if the Handle has not been allocated 
in the widgetset class. This is Delphi compatible.
</p>
<p>
Use the OnItemEnter and OnItemExit event handlers to perform actions when the 
focus or selection for a radio button is changed, as opposed to a change in 
the properties for the group control.
</p>
<remark>
Some widgetsets do not allow a radio button group to be unselected, or have 
no selected radio button. For this reason, a hidden radio button exists in 
TCustomRadioGroup and is selected when ItemIndex is set to -1.

<descr>
<p>
<var>TRadioGroup</var>: A group of related but mutually exclusive radio 
buttons, requiring the user to select one of a set of alternatives. As one 
button becomes selected, the remaining buttons in the group become 
automatically deselected.
</p>
<p>
To use this control, place it in the required position on the form, then in 
the Object Inspector select <var>Items</var> and click on the ellipsis (...) 
to open the string editor. Type in the captions to accompany each check box, 
then close the string editor and you will see a series of Radio Boxes with 
their captions displayed beside them. (Note - unlike <link 
id="#lcl.ExtCtrls.TCheckGroup">TCheckGroup</link>, there is no special 
RadioGroup editor).
</p>

id="#lcl.ExtCtrls.TCustomRadioGroup">TCustomRadioGroup</link> and <link 
id="#lcl.StdCtrls.TCustomGroupBox">TCustomGroupBox</link>.
</p>
<p>
<var>TRadioGroup</var> behaves differently from a group of 
<var>TRadioButton</var> controls placed arbitrarily around a form.
</p>
<p>
In the case of <var>TRadioButton</var>, the mutual exclusivity is a feature 
that applies to any <var>RadioButton</var> anywhere in the Form, and the 
<var>RadioButtons</var> can be rearranged in any order or placed anywhere 
within the containing <var>Form</var>, while in <var>TRadioGroup</var> the 
exclusivity applies only to buttons within the Group, which are ordered 
strictly according to their <var>ItemIndex</var> within the <var>Items</var> 
for the control.
</p>
<p>
<var>TRadioButton</var> is an entity unto itself with a number of additional 
properties. In contrast, the buttons within <var>TRadioGroup</var> are not 
separate entities, but rather are simply entries in a list of strings, each 
of which is associated with the on-screen image of a <var>RadioButton</var>.
</p>
<p>
The example shows the difference between the use of <var>TRadioButton</var> 
and <var>TRadioGroup</var>.

<descr>
<p>
<var>Paint</var> is an overridden procedure which draws the panel including 
the bevels and caption defined for the control. Paint calls 
<var>GetClientRect</var> to get the rectangle used to draw the control. 
PaintBevel is called to draw both the inner and outer bevels for the control

<p>
When Caption contains a String value (other than an empty string), the Canvas 
for the control is used to render the text. Values in the Alignment, 
VerticalAlignment, UseRightToLeft, and WordWrap properties are applied to the 
Canvas properties as needed. The font color on the canvas is updated for the 
Enabled state in the control and use of theme services. The TextRect method 
in Canvas is called to output the Caption text to the client rectangle for 
the control.

<var>ControlStyle</var> property is updated to include or omit the values 
which control the opacity for the control. When AParentBackground contains 
<b>True</b>, the value csParentBackground is included in ControlStyle. When 
AParentBackground contains <b>False</b>, csParentBackground is excluded from 
ControlStyle.

<p>
The UpdateParentColorChange method is called to update ControlStyle to reflect 
the values in the ParentColor or ParentBackground properties. If either 
ParentColor or ParentBackground are set to <b>True</b>, csOpaque is excluded 
from ControlStyle and the control becomes transparent. When both properties 
are set to <b>False</b>, csOpaque is included in ControlStyle and the control

<descr>
<p>
<var>ShowAccelChar</var> is a <var>Boolean</var> property which indicates 
whether accelerator keys in the Caption property are drawn when the panel is 
displayed. The default value for the property is <b>False</b>, and causes an 
Ampersand character (&amp;) in Caption to be rendered using its character 
value instead of as an accelerator.
</p>
<p>
When set to <b>True</b>, an Ampersand character indicates that the following 
character is an accelerator or hot key. The Ampersand character is removed 
from the rendered value and an underline is drawn beneath the accelerator 
key. In this case, double Ampersand characters (&amp;&amp;) can be used to 
renderer a single Ampersand on the panel.
</p>
<p>
ShowAccelChar allows Caption rendering to behave like the panel 
implementation in the Delphi VCL.
</p>
<p>
ShowAccelChar is used in the Paint method, and controls the ShowPrefix value 
in the text style used to render the Caption on the control.

</short>
<descr>
<p>
TCustomFlowPanel is a TCustomPanel descendant used to automatically position 
controls added to the panel in a grid-like layout.
</p>
<p>
The FlowStyle property determines layout direction for controls added to the 
panel.
</p>
<p>
FlowLayout controls the vertical positioning for controls in given row on the 
panel.
</p>
<p>
The ControlList property provides a list of wrapper classes maintained for 
each of the controls on the panel. Its items maintain the position and 
wrapping options for each control using the FlowStyle and FlowLayout 
algorithms.
</p>
<p>
Adding a control to the panel causes it to be positioned at the next cell in 
the layout. The Left and Top coordinates for each control are adjusted to 
position the control within a cell using the FlowStyle and FlowLayout 
properties for the panel. The Anchors and Align properties for child controls 
are ignored. The BorderSpacing setting for the controls is used, however.
</p>
<p>
AutoWrap indicates whether the controls are automatically flowed into rows 
based on their settings in ControlList.

<var>AlignControls</var> is an overridden procedure used to perform layout

controls are positioned and aligned.
</p>
<p>
No actions are performed in the method if child controls do not exist for the 
panel (ControlCount is 0).

<p>
AlignControls ensures space is reserved in the client rectangle for the 
borders on the panel. The value in FlowStyle determines the position in 
RemainingClientRect where alignment and layout for the controls is started. 
Each of the controls in ControlList is visited to adjust the client rectangle 
for the TControl instances based on the FlowStyle for the panel. SetBounds is

calculate preferred dimensions for its child Controls.
</p>
<p>
CalculatePreferredSize extends the inherited method to calculate the preferred 
width and height using the FlowStyle for the child Controls. It ensures that 
additional space for bevels on the panel and BorderSpacing for the child

<short>Implements a panel with flowed layout for its controls.</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>TFlowPanel</var> is a TCustomFlowPanel descendant which implements a 
panel used to automatically position controls added to the panel in a 
grid-like layout.
</p>
<p>
The FlowStyle property determines layout direction for controls added to the 
panel.
</p>
<p>
FlowLayout controls the vertical positioning for controls in given row on the 
panel.
</p>
<p>
The ControlList property provides a list of wrapper classes maintained for 
each of the controls on the panel. Its items maintain the position and 
wrapping options for each control using the FlowStyle and FlowLayout 
algorithms.
</p>
<p>
Adding a control to the panel causes it to be positioned at the next cell in 
the layout. The Left and Top coordinates for each control are adjusted to 
position the control within a cell using the FlowStyle and FlowLayout 
properties for the panel. The Anchors and Align properties for child controls 
are ignored. The BorderSpacing setting for the controls is used, however.
</p>
<p>
AutoWrap indicates whether the controls are automatically flowed into rows 
based on their settings in ControlList.

<element name="TCustomTrayIcon">
<short>
Defines the base class for a multi-platform system tray icon component.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>TCustomTrayIcon</var> is the base class for <var>TTrayIcon</var>, a 
multi-platform system tray icon component. It allows an icon to be displayed 
in the system tray when the Application or Form is active. TCustomTrayIcon 
provides properties, methods, and events used to configure, display, and 
control the tray icon. The component is supported on multiple platforms, but 
its implementation is platform-specific.
</p>
<p>
On the Windows platform, the system tray is usually located on the 
bottom-right corner of the screen, but it can be located on other edges for 
the physical screen. For other platforms, the position and other features 
varies according to the window or display manager in use.
</p>
<p>
Use Icon to set the icon image type displayed for the control. Use Icons to 
assign a list of images displayed as the animated icon for the control when 
the Show method is called.
</p>
<p>
Use BalloonFlags, BalloonHint, BalloonTimeout and BalloonTitle to format and 
display balloon hints for the tray icon. If balloon hints are not supported 
for the platform, an internal TPopupNotifier is used to display the Hint for 
the control.
</p>
<p>
Use PopUpMenu to set the menu displayed when the icon is right clicked with 
the mouse.
</p>
<p>
Assign routines to the event handlers to perform actions needed when the icon 
is clicked - or when mouse move, up, or down messages are received.
</p>
<remark>
TCustomTrayIcon / TTrayIcon are <b>partially</b> compatible with the Delphi 
VCL component. It adds an OnPaint event handler which does not exist in 
Delphi. It omits properties like IconIndex and OnBalloonClick.

<element name="TCustomTrayIcon.InternalUpdate">
<short>Updates the control for any pending changes.</short>
<descr>
<p>
The behavior of this method depends on the widgetset.It was added to provide 
a way to update items which either cannot be updated automatically when 
changed, or would be too inefficient to be updated on each change.
</p>
<p>
One example of this is the tray icon menu under LCL-Carbon. It is not 
automatically updated when changes are made to it's associated LCL 
TPopUpMenu, but changes are updated when InternalUpdate is called. This 
happens because the tray icon menus are Cocoa menus which don't match the 
Carbon menus from LCL-Carbon.
</p>
<p>
Similar things happen in other widgetsets, so InternalUpdate can be expected 
to update the menu and/or icon of the tray icon, if this is necessary. If 
such an update is not required, for example because it is automatically 
updated on each change, then InternalUpdate will simply do nothing, so it is 
always a safe function to call, regardless of the widgetset.

notify of a received message or any other event which doesn't require an 
immediate response.
</p>
<p>
The ShowBalloonHint method in the widgetset class is called to display the 
hint window. For platforms which do not provide native balloon hint support, 
an internal <var>TPopupNotifier</var> is used to display the values in 
<var>BalloonTitle</var> and <var>BalloonHint</var>. GetPosition is called to 
determine the coordinates for the balloon hint, and the ShowAtPos method in 
the pop-up notifier is called to display the values.

<descr>
<p>
<var>GetPosition</var> is a <var>TPoint</var> function used to get the 
position of the tray icon on the display. GetPosition calls the namesake 
method in the <var>WidgetSetClass</var> to get the location for the tray 
icon. The coordinates in the return value are used to determine the location 
for a BalloonHint window for the tray icon.
</p>
<p>
For the Windows platform, an approximate location in the tray area in the 
Windows taskbar is used. For other platforms, the position is dependent on 
the window manager or desktop environment. It may also contain an empty 
rectangle as the position value.

<element name="TTrayIcon">
<short>
Implements a multi-platform system tray component.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>TTrayIcon</var> is a <var>TCustomTrayIcon</var> descendant which 
implements a multi-platform System Tray component. It allows an icon to be 
displayed in the system tray when the Application or Form is active. 
TTrayIcon provides properties, methods, and events used to configure, 
display, and control the tray icon. It sets the visibility for properties 
from ancestor classes. The component is supported on multiple platforms, but 
its implementation is platform-specific.
</p>
<p>
On the Windows platform, the system tray is usually located on the 
bottom-right corner of the screen, but it can be located on other edges for 
the physical screen. For other platforms, the position and other features 
varies according to the window or display manager in use.
</p>
<p>
Use Icon to set the icon image type displayed for the control. Use Icons to 
assign a list of images displayed as the animated icon for the control when 
the Show method is called.
</p>
<p>
Use BalloonFlags, BalloonHint, BalloonTimeout and BalloonTitle to format and 
display balloon hints for the tray icon. If balloon hints are not supported 
for the platform, an internal TPopupNotifier is used to display the Hint for 
the control.
</p>
<p>
Use PopUpMenu to set the menu displayed when the icon is right clicked with 
the mouse.
</p>
<p>
Assign routines to the event handlers to perform actions needed when the icon 
is clicked - or when mouse move, up, or down messages are received.
</p>
<remark>
TCustomTrayIcon / TTrayIcon are <b>partially</b> compatible with the Delphi 
VCL component. It adds an OnPaint event handler which does not exist in 
Delphi. It omits properties like IconIndex and OnBalloonClick.

<p>
<var>CalculatePreferredSize</var> is an overridden method in 
<var>TCustomControlBar</var>. It re-implements the method from the ancestor

<p>
CheckBandsSizeAndVisibility is called to initialize the TCtrlBand instances 
on the control, and to order the bands which have visible controls by their 
display coordinates.
</p>
<p>
PreferredWidth and PreferredHeight are variable arguments which contain the 
preferred dimensions for a new instance of the control. In TCustomControlBar, 
PreferredWidth is set to 0 to trigger the auto-sizing feature specified in 
ControlStyle. PreferredHeight is set to the value from the 
CalcLowestBandBottomPx method, and actually contains the largest value in the 
Bottom property for the visible controls on the control bands. A positive 
non-zero value in PreferredHeight also includes the space needed for inner 
bevels on the control bands.
</p>
<p>
CalculatePreferredSize is called when LCL auto-sizing algorithms are executed 
for the control.

<var>MultiPageControls</var> - controls that offer a selection of alternative 
pages for display.
</p>
<p>
A number of controls, found in Units <var>ExtCtrls</var> and 
<var>ComCtrls</var>, offer the ability to create multi-page forms with a 
series of <var>Tabs</var> along one edge that allow the user to select one of 
the <var>Pages</var> for display and interaction.
</p>
<p>
These include: <var>TPageControl</var>, <var>TNoteBook</var>, 
<var>TTabControl</var> and <var>THeaderControl</var> (the Header Control 
components have a very different structure and function). Icons for all of 
these exist on the <var>Additional</var> or <var>Common Controls</var> tabs 
of the Component Palette in the Lazarus IDE.
</p>
<p>
While the various components may look superficially similar, they differ in 
properties, inheritance, method of adding additional pages, behavior at 
run-time, methods for referencing pages and so on.
</p>
<p>
We have to be very clear when using the various properties, to distinguish 
between the word 'Tab' as referring to a Tab indicating an identifier for a 
page, and 'Tab' as referring to the <b>TAB</b> key on the standard keyboard. 
In common with most Lazarus components, it is possible to enable each control 
to be included in the <var>TabOrder</var> of <var>TabStops</var> for a 
<var>Form</var>, so that the component can be reached by repeated pressing of 
the <b>TAB</b> key, and we must not confuse this use of 'Tab' with the use to 
denote a <var>Page</var>.
</p>
<p>
The properties <var>CanTab</var>, <var>TabStop</var> and <var>TabOrder</var> 
refer to the use of the <b>TAB</b> key to navigate to the relevant control.
</p>
<p>
Properties such as <var>Tabs</var>, <var>TabIndex</var>, 
<var>IndexOfTabAt()</var>, <var>TabIndexAtClientPos()</var>, 
<var>TabPosition</var>, <var>TabHeight</var>, <var>TabWidth</var>, 
<var>TabVisible</var>, <var>OnCloseTabClicked</var> refer to the use for 
<var>Page</var> selection.
</p>
<p>
<var>TTabControl</var> and <var>TPageControl</var> are both descended from 
<var>TCustomNoteBook</var> (which is in turn descended from 
<var>TWinControl</var>) and have many inherited properties in common. 
<var>TPageControl</var> has more advanced features and provides a wrapper for 
the native page control supported for the platform.
</p>
<p>
The following table summarizes the main differences between the two 
components.
</p>

<p>
The individual Pages in both of the above controls (descended from 
<var>TCustomNoteBook</var>) are separate and can have their own specific 
collections of widgets which appear only when the relevant Page is selected 
by its Tab.
</p>
<p>
In contrast, the <var>TTabControl</var> component (descended from 
<var>TCustomTabControl</var>) has only one display area (Protected property 
<var>DisplayRect</var>), but the image displayed in it is determined by which 
tab has been selected. Each Tab has an index value which is used to select 
the appropriate image from an indexed <var>ImageList</var> and display it in 
the Display Rectangle.
</p>
<p>
The properties of the Tabs in <var>TTabControl</var> are very configurable 
compared with those in the controls derived from <var>TCustomNoteBook</var>, 
allowing for instance the creation of multi-line captions, the placement of 
images on Tabs, the possibility of the Owner routine determining the drawing 
of the tab, the configuration of Tab size, the selection of multiple tabs. 
The trade-off is that the display area is restricted in what it can display, 
and is essentially confined to display of images.
</p>
<p>
To use any of the above controls, select them from the relevant tab on the 
IDE Component Palette and drop them on the form in the required position. 
Fill in as many relevant properties as you can in the Object Inspector.
</p>
<p>
To add Tabs or Pages to the controls, select the control with a left mouse 
click or by selecting from the Component menu in the Object Inspector, then 
right-click on the component to get a pop-up menu, whose first item will be 
'Add Page' or 'Add Tab'.
</p>
<p>
The Tabs in <var>TTabControl</var> can be edited by selecting 'Tabs' in the 
Object Inspector, clicking on the ellipsis (...) and using the pop-up string 
editor to maintain the tab/page names.
</p>
<p>
The pages in<var>TNoteBook</var> or <var>TPageControl</var> can be edited by 
selecting the <var>ActivePage</var> in the Object Inspector and then editing 
the properties of the individual page.
</p>
<p>
<var>THeaderControl</var> offers a widget that could be placed along the edge 
of a Panel or Form, allowing a highly customized mechanism for selection. 
However, there are no intrinsically associated display areas, and it is the 
developer's responsibility to supply an index associated with the selection 
from the <var>THeaderControl</var> and determining what action is to occur or 
what is to be displayed in any attached Panel or Form.
</p>
<p>
When the control is first selected from the Component Palette and placed on a 
Form, it consists of an unadorned rectangle. However, selecting the control 
and right-clicking (or selecting the 'Sections' property in the Object 
Inspector) gives access to a Sections editor (a TStringList editor) and 
Sections can be added to the control. The sections are separated by vertical 
lines, and each section can have a string inserted as a label, associated 
with an Index value. The Sections can be rearranged, re-ordered, or be 
individually painted.
</p>
<p>
In a typical application, a <var>THeaderControl</var> and a <var>TPanel</var> 
or <var>TForm</var> would be docked together. Code would be written to find 
which Section of the Header had been selected, then use its index to control 
the display in the other docked control.
