Description
Interface to the IE4-style ‘Rebar’ controls. You can have a single toolbar, or you can set the ‘Cool’ property to “true” to allow several toolbars to share the same region at the top of the form. At present, the only valid child control is the new-style tool button.
As the user drags these around, the depth of the parent region may change (also setting captions on/off will affect this) so you can ask the toolcontrol to manage a collection of other objects by listing any number of group names in the Reposition property.
N.B. If you have several toolcontrols, only set this property on the first one you create. You can use the ‘Sequence’ property to change the actual order in which they appear.
N.B. Do not set the ‘Newline’ property of the first control in the sequence to 1, Dyalog tolerates this, but it confuses the repositioning algorithm!
