            <var>TCustomScrollBar</var> is a <var>TWinControl</var> descendant which defines the base class for a scrollbar, such as <var>TScrollBar</var>. TCustomScrollBar can be used for horizontal or vertical scrollbars displayed on a form or scrolling window control.
          </p>
          <p>
            A scrollbar allows the content in a client area to be scrolled when it extends beyond the window bounds. TCustomScrollBar provides the properties, methods, and events needed to interface with the widgetset class for the platform or operating system.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>Kind</var> property to specify the orientation for the scrollbar.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use <var>Min</var>, <var>Max</var>, <var>SmallChange</var>, <var>LargeChange</var>, <var>PageSize</var> and <var>Position</var> properties to control the scrolling behavior for the scrollbar.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>OnChange</var> and <var>OnScroll</var> event handlers to respond to programmatic changes to the scrollbar, or messages received from the widgetset class.

          </p>
          <p>
            When any of the parameter values differ from the current values in the class instance, the class instance is updated. <var>SetScrollInfo</var> is called to apply the changed values when a handle has been allocated for the control. <var>SetScrollPos</var> is called when APosition contains a value different than the one in the class instance. The <var>Change</var> method is called to process the updated values in the control and signal the <var>OnChange</var> event handler (when assigned). The <var>SetParams</var> method in the widgetset class is called to synchronize the changes.
          </p>
          <p>
            SetParams is called when a new value is assigned to the <var>Position</var>, <var>Min</var>, <var>Max</var>, or <var>PageSize</var> property.

            A control that allows the user to scroll the content in a windowed control, by moving a slider.
          </p>
          <p>
            TScrollBar appears as a long rectangular track bar, within which a smaller contrasting block or slider can move up and down (or from side to side in a horizontal ScrollBar). It has small triangular indicators or pointers on one or both ends of the bar, depending on the widgetset.
          </p>
          <p>
            Clicking with the mouse on one of the pointers moves the slider a small distance (<var>SmallChange</var>) in the specified direction. Clicking with the mouse in the blank area of the scrollbar above or below the slider makes the slider move by a larger increment (<var>LargeChange</var>).
          </p>
          <p>
            The slider can also be moved by clicking on it with the mouse, and holding down the button while moving the mouse. The slider then follows the mouse until the button is released.
          </p>
          <p>
            If the mouse has a scrollwheel, the slider also can be moved by rotating the wheel.
          </p>
          <p>
            The arrow keys or the Page Up/Page Down keys on the keyboard can be used to move the slider, too.
          </p>
          <p>
            The location of the slider along the track is held in the <var>Position</var> property. It's the programmer's responsibility to ensure that the content of the window is scrolled to the new Position of the scrollbar.

        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>TCustomComboBox</var> is a <var>TWinControl</var> descendant which implements the base class for combo-box components in the LCL (Lazarus Component Library).
          </p>
          <p>
            A combo-box is visually represented as an edit control and a scrollable list of items which can be selected. The list can be always visible, or opened when needed using a drop-down indicator. In addition, the items in the control be drawn using using the built-in mechanisms for the widgetset class or using an owner-drawn style.
          </p>
          <p>
            Despite similarities in appearance to <var>TCustomEdit</var> and <var>TCustomList</var>, the class inherits no properties from these classes (Delphi compatible).
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>Style</var> property to control the display style and drawing mechanism enabled for Items in the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use properties like <var>AutoComplete</var>, <var>AutoCompleteText</var>, and <var>AutoDropDown</var> to control the behavior of the edit field or drop-down list in the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use <var>Items</var> to access existing list items defined the control. Use <var>AddItem</var> or <var>AddHistoryItem</var> to add entries to the list items in the control. Use <var>OnGetItems</var> to dynamically populate the Items in the control when the drop-down list is displayed.
          </p>
          <p>
            Do not create instances of TCustomComboBox. Use one of the descendent classes, like <var>TComboBox</var> or <var>TComboBoxEx</var>.

          </p>
          <p>
            The event applies to interactive changes to <var>Text</var> made by the user, not those made programmatically. Note that this differs from how other OnChange events work. For example:  TEdit.OnChange is triggered by text changes that occur in code. This event is also triggered when the item selection is changed using the drop-down list in the combo-box.
          </p>
          <p>
            OnChange is signalled (when assigned) in the <var>Change</var> method called when the control messages are handled in the window procedure. An application must implement and assign an object procedure using the signature in TNotifyEvent to respond to the event notification.

OnDrawItem is used when <var>Style</var> contains one of the owner-drawn values. See <var>TComboBoxStyle</var> for more information about the owner-drawn styles available.
          </p>
          <p>
            OnDrawItem is signalled (when assigned) from the <var>DrawItem</var> method. The event handler is responsible for all drawing operations needed to render the specified list item. This can include the text and any images or overlays drawn for the list item. Use the <var>Canvas</var> property to render the list item to the specified coordinate rectangle.
          </p>
          <p>
            If OnDrawItem is not assigned, an internal default drawing routine is called to render the list item. It handles filling the canvas rectangle with the background for the item, and drawing the item text using the style, layout, and alignment defined in the control.

          </p>
          <p>
            OnGetItems is signalled (when assigned) from the <var>GetItems</var> method. Some widgetsets, like GTK, call GetItems (via <var>IntfGetItems</var>) just before the drop-down list is displayed. Others call GetItems when the handle for the control is created. OnGetItems provides one event to handle both cases.
          </p>

            OnSelect is signalled (when assigned) from the <var>Select</var> method when <var>ItemIndex</var> contains a positive non-zero value. Select (and subsequently OnSelect) are called from multiple methods in TCustomComboBox. <var>SelectItem</var> calls Select when the value in ItemIndex is changed as a result of assigning a value to <var>Text</var>. <var>KeyUp</var> calls Select when the value in Text is updated by auto-completion features in the control.

            Setting this property to <b>True</b> enforces ascending alphanumeric case-insensitive sorting of the list. When set to <b>True</b>, new entries are added in sort order, and not to the end of the Items list. When a new value is assigned to the property, the <var>UpdateSorted</var> method is called to set the <var>Sorted</var> property in <var>Items</var> to the corresponding value. <var>ItemIndex</var> is also set to the location in Items where the value in <var>Text</var> is stored, or <b>-1</b> when not found.

          <p>
            If text is selected in the edit box for the control, this is the starting position. When no text is selected, SelStart is the cursor position and SelLength is 0 (zero).
          </p>
          <p>
            Writing a new value to the property moves the cursor, and removes the current text selection. Set SelLength after changing SelStart, to establish a new text selection.
          </p>
          <p>
            SelStart is a <b>zero-based</b> index to UTF-8 character in the Text, in contrast to the usual <b>1-based</b> string indices. The value 0 means the first UTF-8 character, the value 1 means the second UTF-8 character, etc.

            <dt>csSimple</dt>
            <dd>Displays an edit box with an attached list (not a drop-down list).</dd>

            </dd>
          </dl>
          <p>
            Owner-drawn drop-down lists have been added, with the values:

            <dt>csOwnerDrawFixed</dt>
            <dd>All items in the drop-down list are drawn with the same height.</dd>

      <element name="TCustomComboBox.Text">
        <short>The value in the edit box for the control.</short>
        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>Text</var> is a public property in <var>TCustomComboBox</var> and contains the <var>TCaption</var> value for the control. It is the value displayed in the edit box for the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Setting a new value for Text in program code causes the <var>RealSetText</var> method to be called. The new property value is located in the <var>Items</var> property, and the value in <var>ItemIndex</var> is updated with the ordinal position for the found value. A case-insensitive comparison is used to locate the value in Items. The value applied to Text retains the original case used in the new property value. ItemIndex is set to <b>-1</b> if a value is not located in Items that is a case-insensitive match the new property value.
          </p>
          <p>
            At run-time, the value in Text can be updated using the edit box for the control when it is enabled for the selected <var>Style</var> (such as <var>csDropDown</var> and <var>csSimple</var>). When Style contains <var>csDropDownList</var>, the edit box is not displayed. But the button for the drop-down list handles the first character key pressed, and locates a value in Items when the button has focus.
          </p>
          <p>
            <var>AutoComplete</var> enables or disables auto-completion for the value in Text. When set to <b>True</b>, the first item that matches the entered character(s) is located in Items and the value is highlighted in the drop-down list for the control. By default, a case-insensitive comparison is used to find the entered value. Case sensitivity can be enabled using <var>cbactSearchCaseSensitive</var> in the <var>AutoCompleteText</var> options, and requires the value in Items to be an exact case-sensitive match for the character(s) entered in the edit box. Text is updated to contain the complete value for the entry in Items. By default, the case for the value in Items is retained and applied to Text. Include <var>cbactRetainPrefixCase</var> in AutoCompleteText options to use the value as entered in the edit box in the Text property.
          </p>
          <p>
            When the edit box loses input focus, ItemIndex is updated with the ordinal position in Items where the partial value was found. It is set to <b>-1</b> when a matching value could not be located in Items.
          </p>
          <p>
            When AutoComplete is disabled (set to <b>False</b>), the entered value is still located located and highlighted in the drop-down list for Items. However, the value in Text is not expanded and the the value in ItemIndex is not updated. The item must be selected using the drop-down list to apply the value to Text and update the value in ItemIndex.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use ItemIndex to select one of the Items by its ordinal position, and apply the value to the Text property.

            The Text property reflects the text entered into the edit box, or selected from the list.

            The selectable values are kept in the <var>Items</var> list. Clicking on the ellipsis character (<b>...</b>), next to <var>Items</var> in the Object Inspector, opens an editor which allows the designer to populate the Items list.
          </p>
          <p>
            At run-time, the entry selected from the list replaces the text in the edit box, and <var>ItemIndex</var> holds the (zero-based) index number of the selected item.
          </p>
          <p>
            If no value is selected from the drop-down list, the default text (if any) remains, or any information typed directly into <var>Text</var> will be returned, and <var>ItemIndex</var> takes the value of -1.

            An application must implement an object procedure to respond to the event notification. <var>Index</var> contains the position in <var>Items</var> with the string to examine in the event handler. On entry, <var>TheHeight</var> contains the text height for the current <var></var>Font calculated using the <var>Canvas</var> in the control. The value in TheHeight can be updated with the value derived in the event handler.

          <p>
            The index value is the ordinal position in <var>Items</var> with the selection state value.

          <p>
            AutoSelected is used in conjunction with the <var>AutoSelect</var> property which enables the capability. AutoSelected is not set to <b>True</b> when AutoSelect has not been enabled. AutoSelect is enabled by default in <var>TCustomEdit</var>.

            ParentColor determines if the control should use the Color from the Parent control, when enabled. The default value is False in TCustomEdit.
          </p>
          <p>
            When this property is True, all changes to the Color of the parent will also be applied to the Color of the control, ensuring that they both contain same value. If the Color of the control is changed by the application, then ParentColor will be automatically set to False.
          </p>
          <p>
            Using ParentColor when the Color value is clDefault can cause problems in resolving the actual color value. To obtain the Color property of a control while taking into account clDefault and ParentColor, use the GetColorResolvingParent method. This method might return a non-RGB color, but will never return clDefault. To obtain a purely RGB result use the GetRGBColorResolvingParent method.

            Changing the value for the property causes the <var>SetHideSelection</var> method in the widgetset class to be called when its handle has been allocated. No actions are performed in the method when the handle has not been allocated for the widgetset class.
          </p>
          <p>
            The value in HideSelection is used in the <var>CreateParams</var> method to determine whether the <var>ES_NOHIDESEL</var> edit style flag is included in or omitted from the creation parameters for the control. When HideSelection is set to <b>False</b>, the ES_NOHIDESEL edit style is included in the flag values.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use SelText, SelStart, and SelLength to change the text selection in program code. Use ClearSelection to remove the current text selection in the edit control.

          <p>
            OnChange is triggered when the value in <var>Text</var> is modified either by using the keyboard or assigning a new value in program code. Please note that this differs from controls, like <var>TCustomComboBox</var> / <var>TComboBox</var>, where the event is not signalled when the control value is changed in program code.

            When the control value is edited using the keyboard, OnChange is signalled after each character or keystroke is handled and applied to the value in Text. To avoid visible delays during editing, the event handler should not be too time or resource intensive.

      <element name="TCustomMemo">
        <short>The base class for multi-line text controls.</short>
        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>TCustomMemo</var> is a <var>TCustomEdit</var> descendant which implements the base class used for a multi-line edit control. TCustomMemo extends TCustomEdit with additional properties and methods needed for the control. Overridden methods are provided to create and initialize the control using style flags needed for the widgetset class.
          </p>
          <p>
            The textual values in the multi-line control can be accessed using the <var>Lines</var> property. An individual line of text can be accessed by its ordinal position in the list of values. For example:
          </p>
<code>
    // var sContent: String; ...
    sContent := AMemo.Lines[2];
</code>
          <p>
            This provides access to the third value in List (index positions are zero-based).
          </p>
          <p>
            The values for all of the text in Lines can be retrieved as a single String using the <var>Text</var> property in the <var>TStrings</var> class instance. Each line of text is separated by the <var>LineEnding</var> character sequence for the host platform or operating system. For example:
          </p>
<code>
    // var sContent: String; ...
    sContent := AMemo.Lines.Text;
</code>
          <p>
            Please note: There is a difference in TCustomMemo / TMemo between the <var>Text</var> and <var>Lines</var> properties. Text is actually the Caption for the control as inherited from TControl. Lines is the multi-line TStrings instance specific to the memo control.  Setting the control value using Text does <b>NOT</b> cause the <var>Modified</var> property to be updated. Setting the value using the Lines property does cause the Modified property to be updated.
          </p>
          <p>
            This is important if an <var>OnChange</var> event handler is used to detect changes to the value in the control, and you need to identify whether the change was performed in program code. You can identify a programmatic change by manipulating the value in Modified.
          </p>
          <p>
            For changes in program code, set Modified to False before setting the value using the Text property. If Modified is False when OnChange is signalled, the change occurred in program code. Modified can be set as desired in your program code after the value is assigned to Text. For example:
          </p>
<code>
// use Modified and Text to track program changes
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Memo1.Modified := False;
  Memo1.Text := 'Whiskey' + LineEnding + 'Tango' + LineEnding + 'Foxtrot';
  Memo1.Modified := True;
end;

procedure TForm1.Memo1Change(Sender: TObject);
begin
  if not TCustomMemo(Sender).Modified then
     StaticText1.Caption := 'Memo changed in code'
  else
     StaticText1.Caption := 'Memo changed by user';
end;
</code>
          <p>
            Changes entered by the user are applied when methods update the Lines property in the control. As a result, Modified is set to True. If Modified is True in OnChange, the change was triggered by user interaction with the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            The value in Modified is retained when the control gains or loses focus whether by keyboard navigation or by using the mouse.
          </p>
          <p>
            The text displayed in the control uses the attributes defined in the <var>Font</var> property. No capabilities are provided for formatting individual characters, words, or lines in the content for the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Both horizontal and vertical scrollbars can be used in the control. Use the <var>ScrollBar</var> property to define the scrollbars displayed for the control. It can be used to enable automatic scrollbars which are only displayed when the content for the control does not fit within its bounds.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>Append</var> method to add a line of text to the values in Lines.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>WantTabs</var> and <var>WantReturns</var> properties to determine whether the corresponding keys are captured and stored in Lines. This affects the way control messages are applied to the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use <var>WordWrap</var> to indicate if the control should automatically wrap a line of text longer than the visible area for the control.

          Contains the individual lines of text in the multi-line edit control.

        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>Lines</var> is a <var>TStrings</var> property which contains the individual lines of text in the multi-line edit control. The values in Lines can be accessed using the <var>Strings</var> and <var>Text</var> properties defined in TStrings. The Strings property in Lines allows an individual line of text to be accessed by its ordinal position. For example:
          </p>
          <code>
            // var sContent: String;
            sContent := AMemo.Lines.Strings[2];
            // equivalent to preceding since Strings is the default property
            sContent := AMemo.Lines[2];
          </code>
          <p>
            The Text property in Lines allows access to all of the values stored in Lines. Text lines are  separated by the <var>LineEnding</var> character sequence defined for the host platform or operating system. For example:
          </p>
          <code>
            // var sContent: String;
            sContent := AMemo.Lines.Text;
          </code>
          <p>
            Changing the values in Lines causes the Modified property to be set to True. Use Text to make changes to the control value that do not cause the Modified property to be updated.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>Append</var> method to add a line of text to the end of the values in Lines.
          </p>
          <p>
            Set values in the <var>WantTabs</var>, <var>WantReturns</var>, and <var>WordWrap</var> properties to control the content and behavior for the multi-line edit control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>OnChange</var> event handler to perform actions needed when the value for the control has been changed.

      <element name="TMemo">
        <short>Control used to display and edit multi-line text.</short>
        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>TMemo</var> is a <var>TCustomMemo</var> descendant which implements a multi-line text edit control. TMemo sets the visibility for properties introduced in TCustomMemo, but does not introduce any new methods.
          </p>
          <p>
            The textual values in the multi-line control can be accessed using the <var>Lines</var> property. An individual line of text can be accessed by its ordinal position in the list of values. For example:
          </p>
<code>
    // var sContent: String; ...
    sContent := AMemo.Lines[2];
</code>
          <p>
            This provides access to the third value in List (index positions are zero-based).
          </p>
          <p>
            The values for all of the text in Lines can be retrieved as a single String using the <var>Text</var> property in the <var>TStrings</var> class instance. Each line of text is separated by the <var>LineEnding</var> character sequence for the host platform or operating system. For example:
          </p>
<code>
    // var sContent: String; ...
    sContent := AMemo.Lines.Text;
</code>
          <p>
            Please note: There is a difference in TCustomMemo / TMemo between the <var>Text</var> and <var>Lines</var> properties. Text is actually the Caption for the control as inherited from TControl. Lines is the multi-line TStrings instance specific to the memo control.  Setting the control value using Text does <b>NOT</b> cause the <var>Modified</var> property to be updated. Setting the value using the Lines property does cause the Modified property to be updated.
          </p>
          <p>
            This is important if an <var>OnChange</var> event handler is used to detect changes to the value in the control, and you need to identify whether the change was performed in program code. You can identify a programmatic change by manipulating the value in Modified.
          </p>
          <p>
            For changes in program code, set Modified to False before setting the value using the Text property. If Modified is False when OnChange is signalled, the change occurred in program code. Modified can be set as desired in your program code after the value is assigned to Text. For example:
          </p>
<code>
// use Modified and Text to track program changes
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Memo1.Modified := False;
  Memo1.Text := 'Whiskey' + LineEnding + 'Tango' + LineEnding + 'Foxtrot';
  Memo1.Modified := True;
end;

procedure TForm1.Memo1Change(Sender: TObject);
begin
  if not TCustomMemo(Sender).Modified then
     StaticText1.Caption := 'Memo changed in code'
  else
     StaticText1.Caption := 'Memo changed by user';
end;
</code>
          <p>
            Changes entered by the user are applied when methods update the Lines property in the control. As a result, Modified is set to True. If Modified is True in OnChange, the change was triggered by user interaction with the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            The value in Modified is retained when the control gains or loses focus whether by keyboard navigation or by using the mouse.
          </p>
          <p>
            The text displayed in the control uses the attributes defined in the <var>Font</var> property. No capabilities are provided for formatting individual characters, words, or lines in the content for the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Both horizontal and vertical scrollbars can be used in the control. Use the <var>ScrollBar</var> property to define the scrollbars displayed for the control. It can be used to enable automatic scrollbars which are only displayed when the content for the control does not fit within its bounds.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>Append</var> method to add a line to text to the values in Lines.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>WantTabs</var> and <var>WantReturns</var> properties to determine whether the corresponding keys are captured and stored in Lines. This affects the way control messages are applied to the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use <var>WordWrap</var> to indicate if the control should automatically wrap a line of text longer than the visible area for the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Applications should use TEdit for a single line edit control.

        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>TCustomButton</var> is a <var>TButtonControl</var> descendant which provides the base class for a push button control.
          </p>
          <p>
            TCustomButton / TButton are used to perform an action when the control is clicked. An <var>OnClick</var> event handler is provided to perform actions needed when the push button is clicked.
          </p>
          <p>
            Properties are provided to control the appearance and behavior for the control. This includes  whether it is the Default or Cancel button on a modal form, and the modal result returned when the push button is clicked.
          </p>
          <p>
            The control displays a text-based caption and is drawn using a style appropriate for the platform or widgetset. An accelerator key can be defined in the caption which simulates clicking on the push button when the shortcut key is pressed. Support for TBasicAction from the FPC Run-time Library (RTL) is present, but not  published in the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Please note that the Caption is always center aligned on the push button. The values in properties like BiDiMode and UseRightToLeftAlignment are ignored in the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Please note that the Color for the control defaults to the system-defined color used for button controls (clDefault or clBtnFace).
          </p>
          <p>
            Do not create instances of TCustomButton; use the TButton descendant instead.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use TBitBtn for a push button control which displays a bitmap instead of a text-based caption.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use TSpeedButton for a push button control which can remain in the pressed or down state.

            When AFocused is <b>True</b>, <var>ActiveDefaultControlChanged</var> is called to synchronize values in the control and the parent form.

            UpdateFocus is called when the LM_SETFOCUS or LM_KILLFOCUS messages are handled for the control. It is also called when the <var>CM_UIACTIVATE</var> message is dispatched by the parent form when it is focused.

            <var>WSSetText</var> is an overridden method used to notify the widgetset class instance when the value in the caption text has been changed. No actions are performed in the method when the handle for the control has not been allocated, or at design-time.
          </p>
          <p>
            WSSetText ensures that <b>Ampersand</b> (<b>&amp;</b>) characters used to define an accelerator key in <var>AText</var> are handled for the widgetset class. The Ampersand character(s) are removed from AText, and the virtual key code equivalent is stored in the <var>Shortcut</var> property. By default, the Shortcut uses the <var>ssCtrl</var> shift modifier for the accelerator key.
          </p>
          <p>
            The <var>SetShortCut</var> method in the widgetset class is called to store values from both <var>Shortcut</var> and <var>ShortCutKey2</var>.
          </p>
          <p>
            The inherited <var>WSSetText</var> method is called prior to exit.

Default is essentially a design-time setting that indicates an intent. At run-time, the default button is the ActiveDefaultControl on the form. The default value for the property is <b>False</b>.

          <p>
            ShortCutKey2 is a TShortCut property with the secondary shortcut key or accelerator key for the control. The property value contains both the virtual  key code and the shift modifier for the short cut key. The property value (along with Shortcut) is passed to the widgetset class when the WSSetText method is called.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>ShortCut</var> and <var>ShortCutToKey</var> routines in the <file>menu.pp</file> unit to convert to and from virtual key codes with shift modifiers.

        <descr>
          <p>
            <var>TButton</var> is a <var>TCustomButton</var> descendant which implements a push button control. TButton is used to perform an action when the control is clicked. An <var>OnClick</var> event handler is provided to perform actions needed when the push button is clicked. TButton provides support for the <var>TBasicAction</var> class defined in the FPC Run-time Library (RTL).
          </p>
          <p>
            Properties are provided to control the appearance and behavior for the control. This includes  whether it is the Default or Cancel button on a modal form, and the modal result returned when the push button is clicked.
          </p>
          <p>
            The control displays a text-based caption and is drawn using a style appropriate for the platform or widgetset. An accelerator key can be defined in the caption which simulates clicking on the push button when the shortcut key is pressed.
          </p>
          <p>
            Please note that the Caption in the control is always centered. The values in properties like BiDiMode and UseRightToLeftAlignment are ignored in the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Please note that the Color for the control defaults to the system-defined color used for button controls.
          </p>
          <p>
            TButton sets the visibility for properties defined in the ancestor class, and does not introduce any new methods.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use TBitBtn for a push button control which displays a bitmap instead of a text-based caption.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use TSpeedButton for a push button control which can remain in the pressed or down state.

          <p>
            A check box control allows the user to choose the state for the control independent of other check box controls (unlike a radio button). TCustomCheckBox introduces the <var>State</var> property which contains the check, unchecked, or grayed state for the control. The <var>AllowGrayed</var> property indicates if the grayed state is allowed in the control; otherwise only checked and unchecked are used. The <var>Checked</var> property allows the value in State to be updated by setting a <var>Boolean</var> value that indicates the check or unchecked state for the control.

          <p>
            <var>ApplyChanges</var> is an overridden method in <var>TRadioButton</var>. ApplyChanges ensures that other radio buttons in the <var>Parent</var> control are unchecked when the current class instance is <var>Checked</var>.
          </p>
          <p>
            The siblings controls are normally unchecked by methods in the widgetset class. ApplyChanges performs the actions needed when a handle has not been allocated for the control (widgetset class). This involves iterating over the controls in Parent, and setting the Checked state for sibling TRadioButton instances to <b>False</b>.
          </p>
          <p>
            ApplyChanges is called when the value in the <var>State</var> property is changed.

          <p>
            <var>DialogChar</var> is an overridden <var>Boolean</var> function in <var>TRadioButton</var> which handles accelerator keys in messages for the control. The return value is set to <b>True</b> when the radio button is successfully toggled in the method.

If the control cannot be focused, or Message does not represent an accelerator key code, the inherited method is called to get the return value.

            <var>DoClickOnChange</var> is an overridden method used to signal an <var>OnChange</var> event handler when the mouse is clicked on the control. DoClickOnChange ensures the value in <var>TabStop</var> is updated to reflect the <var>State</var> for the control. When State contains <var>cbChecked</var>, TabStop is set to <b>True</b>. Otherwise, it is set to <b>False</b>.
          </p>
          <p>
            DoClickOnChange also ensures that the correct click/change behavior is used for the current control State. If the control is Checked, the inherited DoClickOnChange method is called. This also emulates the Delphi Click behavior where the <var>OnChange</var> event handler is signalled when <var>ClicksDisabled</var> is <b>True</b>. When the control is not Checked, the <var>DoOnChange</var> method is called to signal both the <var>OnEditingDone</var> and <var>OnChange</var> event handlers.

          <p>
            <var>Alignment</var> is a <var>TAlignment</var> property which controls the horizontal justification of the text displayed in the control. The default value for the property is <var>taLeftJustify</var>. When a new value is assigned to the Alignment property, the <var>Invalidate</var> method is called to repaint the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Alignment (and other properties) are used in the <var>Paint</var> method when the text is rendered to the <var>Canvas</var> for the control. It is also used in <var>UpdateSize</var> when right alignment needs to be considered for an auto-sized or optimal-filled control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use the <var>Layout</var> property to control the vertical alignment of the text displayed in  the control.
          </p>
          <p>
            Use <var>OptimalFill</var> to indicate if the font height can be adjust to fill the client area for the control.

          <p>
            The default value for the property is <var>clNone</var> in <var>TCustomLabel</var>. This value is used because labels, by default, are transparent in the LCL. Please note that this differs from the Delphi VCL where the default value for Transparent is <b>False</b>.
          </p>
          <p>
            Changing the value in Color causes ControlStyle flags to be updated to include or exclude the value csOpaque as needed for the new property value. When set to clNone, the csOpaque flag is excluded from ControlStyle. Other values cause csOpaque to be included in ControlStyle.
          </p>
          <p>
            Color is updated when a new value is assigned to the Transparent property. When Transparent is set to <b>True</b>, clNone is assigned to Color. When Transparent is set to <b>False</b> and color contains clNone, Color is changed to clBackground.
          </p>
          <p>
            Values in Color and Font are used when the background and text for the control are drawn in the Paint method. Use the Font property to assign the typeface and color used for the text displayed on the control.

          </p>
          <p>
            A label control cannot receive the input focus (it is read-only), but can display an accelerator key indicator, just like a menu entries. A windowed control (Edit...) can receive focus, but cannot indicate an accelerator key.
          </p>
          <p>
            Using a combination of a label and another control allows setting the accelerator key in the label caption. The other control receives focus when the user presses the accelerator key.
          </p>
          <p>
            An accelerator key is marked by an Ampersand '&amp;' in the label caption, immediately preceding the character to be used as the accelerator key. The marked character appears underlined on screen, when ShowAccelChar is set to <b>True</b>.
          </p>
          <p>
            For example: When you have a NameEdit1 control on a form, preceded by a label NameLabel1, you can set NameLabel1.FocusControl to NameEdit1, and NameLabel1.Caption to '&amp;Name'.

          How to use <var>StdCtrls</var>, <var>ComCtrls</var> or <var>ExtCtrls</var>.
        </short>
        <descr>
          <p>
            The Units <var>StdCtrls</var>, <var>ComCtrls</var> and <var>ExtCtrls</var> contain definitions and descriptions of many of the most commonly used controls for constructing Forms and other objects in Lazarus GUI applications.
          </p>
          <p>
            Most controls are split into a final class, such as <var>TButton</var>, <var>TMemo</var>, <var>TScrollBar</var> etc., and a corresponding ancestor class such as <var>TCustomButton</var>, <var>TCustomMemo</var> or <var>TCustomScrollBar</var>. The final class is designed for immediate use, it almost only publishes the properties of the control. The corresponding custom ancestor class (<var>TCustomXXX</var>) can be used to derive controls with special (customized) appearance or behavior.
          </p>
          <p>
            If you drop a component from the component palette on the form editor you don't need to add code explicitly to create it. The component is automatically created by the IDE together with the form, and destroyed when the form is destroyed.
          </p>
          <p>
            However, if you create the component yourself by code, and don't specify an Owner for it (Create(Nil)), you are responsible for freeing the component when it is no longer needed. You better construct it with Create(Self), where Self means the containing Form or Parent control.
          </p>
          <p>
            A control also must have a Parent control, maybe the Form, so that it can become visible within the client area of its Parent. The Top and Left properties specify the placement of the control within its <b>Parent</b>. The Object Tree reflects the Parent-Client relationships of all controls on the form.
          </p>
          <p>
            Unlike controls, mere <var>components</var> are invisible at run-time (Open Dialogs...). Controls can be made invisible at run-time as well, by setting their Visible property to <b>False</b>.
          </p>
          <p>
            If you place a component on the Form Designer and look at the Object Inspector, you can observe the Top and Left properties change as you move the component around. The same for the Width and Height properties, when you resize a control by dragging it's size grips.
          </p>
          <p>
            When you modify the properties in the Object Inspector, the control on the form will reflect the changes as well.

            You can also explicitly change the properties of the object in code by typing (in the appropriate Implementation section of the Source editor), for example
          </p>
          <code>Form1.Button1.Height := 48;</code>
          <p>
            In summary, there are usually about three different ways to determine each property of a component:
          </p>
          <ul>
            <li>by using the mouse,</li>
            <li>by setting the values in the Object Inspector,</li>
            <li>or explicitly by writing code.</li>
          </ul>
          <p>
            The components defined in these Units have several properties that are common to most of them, and other properties that are specific to the individual components. We shall describe the most common ones here. Unusual or control-specific properties will be described for the individual controls.
          </p>
          <p>
            Additional Help can always be obtained by selecting a property or keyword,  in either the Object Inspector or the Source Editor, and pressing <b>F1</b>. You will be taken by your Help browser to the appropriate page in the documentation.
          </p>
          <p>
            If the description of a property on that page is insufficient, you can navigate to the corresponding description in the ancestor classes, by selecting the links in the Inheritance listing or by selecting the ancestor Type in the declaration of the object.

For example <b>[akBottom, akRight]</b> will keep the control a fixed distance from the bottom right corner. Anchoring both [akLeft, akRight] will make the control extend or shrink in Width, together with its Parent.

                The identifier by which the control is known in the program. The IDE gives it a default name based on the underlying type, for example successive instances of TBitButton would be named Form1.BitButton1 and Form1.BitButton2; it is up to the application programmer to give them more meaningful names such as ExitButton or OKButton. By default the Name of the control is applied to the Caption for the control, but the text of the Caption may be changed separately.

                Like Caption, the <b>user editable</b> text that appears in the control. Applies particularly to Edit, Memo and Combo-Box types of controls. Most of the editing operations (such as <var>Select</var>, <var>Clear</var>, <var>Cut</var>, <var>Copy</var>) are performed in this property. If the control contains more than a single line of text, then the textual elements are arranged as a zero-based array of strings in <var>Lines</var> (<var>TMemo</var>) or <var>Items</var> (<var>TListBox</var>, <var>TComboBox</var>).

              <td>WordWrap</td>
              <td>
                Allows wrapping the Text into multiple lines. When <b>False</b>, the text is clipped at the right margin of the control, but it still can be inspected by moving the caret within the text.

          <p>
            The 'Events' tab in the Object Inspector contains a list with events, which can occur for this control. If you select an entry in the list, a combo-box appears with a drop-down list showing any event handlers that have already been defined, and allowing you to choose one for this event. Alternatively you can select the ellipsis (three dots ...) and you will be taken to the Source Editor, where the Object Inspector created an new event handler method for you. You also can type the name of your handler in the Object Inspector and press Enter, to create a new handler method.
          </p>
          <p>
            While a large number of events is available for any given control, in practice it is only necessary to populate a few of them. For most controls, it is sufficient to provide coding for 'OnClick'; for more complex controls it may be necessary also to provide for 'OnEntry' (when the control receives the focus) and 'OnExit' (when the control looses the focus); or you may need to write an event handler for 'OnChange' or 'OnScroll', depending on the nature of the particular control with which you are dealing.
          </p>
          <p>
            Many controls have a default event, usually OnClick, for which an handler is created with a double click on the control. Or right click on the control, and select the first entry: 'Create default event'.
          </p>
          <p>
            A common strategy in Object-Oriented programming is to provide an <link id="#lcl.ActnList.TActionList">ActionList</link> with the facility for entering, removing or editing a number of predefined actions, from which the most appropriate can be selected to use in any particular instance.

                Action to be taken when the (left) mouse button is clicked. This is usually the main or default action of the control; for example clicking on a button or check box initiates the action associated with the check box. It may alternatively initiate a process of selection, for instance in a TextBox or Memo.

              <td>Click</td>
              <td>
                A method to emulate in code the effect of clicking on a control. This method is most often found in Button-type controls (TButton, TBitBtn, TSpeedButton etc). A procedure can be written that calls the same code as the OnClick action. This facility can be particularly useful if the activation of one control by clicking causes a cascade of other controls to be activated, and the Click method can be used to initiate the action rather than having the user explicitly click on a lot of controls.

          <p>
            <var>Constructors</var> such as <var>Create</var> allocate memory and system resources needed by the object. They also call the constructor of any sub-objects present in the class.
          </p>
          <p>
            <var>Destructors</var> remove the object and de-allocate memory and other resources. If you call <var>Destroy</var> for an object which hasn't being initialized yet it will generate an error. Always use the <var>Free</var> method to deallocate objects, because it checks whether an object's value is <b>nil</b> before invoking <var>Destroy</var>.
          </p>
          <p>
            Take the following precautions when creating your own <var>Destroy</var> method:
          </p>
          <ul>
            <li>
              Declare <var>Destroy</var> with the <b>override</b> directive, because it is a <b>virtual</b> method.
            </li>
            <li>
              Always call the inherited Destroy method as the last action in the destructor code.
            </li>
            <li>
              Be aware that an <var>exception</var> may be raised by the <var>constructor</var> when  there is not enough memory to create an object, or something else goes wrong. If the <var>exception</var> is not handled inside the constructor, the object will be destroyed immediately. In this case <var>Destroy</var> will be called with a partially initialized object, so your destructor must check if the resources were really allocated before disposing of them.
            </li>
            <li>Remember to call <var>Free</var> for all objects created on the constructor.</li>
