1. EuWinGui Question

I have a single form with two buttons at the left. Clicking button1 causes one set of widgets to appear in the work area on the right. Clicking button2 causes another set to appear after making the first set invisible. Clicking button1 again causes ... well you get the picture. Latest version of EuWinGui (12/2010) is the one I'm using with OE4.
Right now I'm setting each individual widget visible or invisible as needed. Since each widget is unique within it's set (all are unique) is there any way to make the entire area visible or invisible? I've tried using a group box without a label but that didn't work and I don't see anything resembling a panel such as I've used in other languages to accomplish something similar.
Ideas/suggestions solicited and appreciated.
Best,
Tom

Hi
I don't think so, though I'm not 100% sure. EuWinGUI was designed as a quick chuck together form creation system, and is very good for what is asked of it. If you want the level of sophistication you're asking for, you may have to live with setting each of the properties to visible as you are doing now, or use wxWidgets or Win32Lib.

I agree, it's a great 'quick' system and it does indeed work beautifully for what it does.
I'll just continue down this path and then maybe rewrite the program using wxWidgets or Win32Lib for comparison purposes. It's all about learning anyway ... :)
Thanks Chris.
