Instance Variables

group_flags

This instance variable controls the behavior of the group, and may be a combination of zero or more of the following flags:

Constant	Description
`Pt_GROUP_EXCLUSIVE`	Only one child can be selected at a time.
`Pt_GROUP_EQUAL_SIZE`	All children are forced to be the same height and width.
`Pt_GROUP_NO_SELECT_ALLOWED`	Allows unselecting a child (click on it) without selecting another child.
`Pt_GROUP_NO_KEYS`	Blocks any group use of keys.
`Pt_GROUP_NO_KEY_WRAP_HORIZONTAL`	Blocks keys for horizontal wrap.
`Pt_GROUP_NO_KEY_WRAP_VERTICAL`	Blocks keys for vertical wrap.
`Pt_GROUP_NO_KEY_WRAP`	Blocks keys for horizontal and vertical wrap.

Among the next 4 flags, you should not set EQUAL_SIZE and STRETCH flags for the same direction.

`Pt_GROUP_EQUAL_SIZE_HORIZONTAL`	Keeps all children in the group the same width.
`Pt_GROUP_EQUAL_SIZE_VERTICAL`	Keeps all children in the group the same height.
`Pt_GROUP_STRETCH_HORIZONTAL`	Fills the group canvas horizontally by stretching right-hand children.
`Pt_GROUP_STRETCH_VERTICAL`	Fills the group canvas vertically by stretching bottom children.
`Pt_GROUP_STRETCH`	Fills the canvas in the orientation direction by stretching the widgets of that edge.
`Pt_GROUP_STRETCH_FILL`	Stretch Fill

group_horz_align

This instance variable specifies horizontal alignment of the group as a whole, and may have one of the following values:

Constant	Description
`Pt_GROUP_HORZ_NONE`	No horizontal repositioning for the group.
`Pt_GROUP_HORZ_CENTER`	The group is centered horizontally.
`Pt_GROUP_HORZ_LEFT`	The group is aligned to the left.
`Pt_GROUP_HORZ_RIGHT`	The group is aligned to the right.

group_orientation

This instance variable re-aligns child widgets into rows or columns, and may have one of the following values:

Constant	Description
`Pt_GROUP_HORIZONTAL`	Children of group are aligned in a row.
`Pt_GROUP_VERTICAL`	Children of group are aligned in a column.
`Pt_GROUP_ASIS`	Children of group are not aligned.

group_rows_cols

A number specifying the number of rows or columns that the children are arranged into, for the relevant group_orientation chosen.

group_spacing

A number specifying the number of pixels to separate each child of the group in both the x and y directions.

group_vert_align

This instance variable specifies vertical alignment of the group as a whole, and may have one of the following values:

Constant	Description
`Pt_GROUP_VERT_NONE`	No vertical repositioning of the group.
`Pt_GROUP_VERT_CENTER`	The group is centered vertically.
