Please Explain GUIStartGroup and GUICtrlCreateGroup

[Icpic]

Hi all,

Just a quick question about the difference between GUIStartGroup and GUICtrlCreateGroup,

I have tried the demo code from the help pages, but I would like a more detailed explaination between these two functions.

Cheers

I will try

GUICtrlCreateGroup - creates a visual box on the GUI with words in the top

GUIStartGroup - does nothing visual - it starts a group of... radio buttons that are connected if you click on one the others will empty, however if you have two groups created by GUIStartGroup those groups work independently from the other radio buttons

hope that helps

Thanks for that quick reply.

When I create a GUICtrlCreateGroup, do I need to close the group with "GUICtrlCreateGroup ("",-99,-99,1,1)"

I tried it with two groups, with and without the closing line and it does not seem to make a difference???

no... you do not need to close a GUI visual group

Valuater, although it's not essential to use GUICtrlCreateGroup("", -99, -99, 1, 1) to close a visual group, there is no performance harm in doing it is there? I ask because I normally do it for code 'completeness'.
