Creating a control set

General

Please give me simple step by step instructions on creating a control set. I have done this in the past. And I have lost the ability to create control sets. I think I can recall finding control set in the inspector but it appears there is no control set in the inspector. Has it moved or did I imagine that this was how you create control sets?

Thanks

Click on the gear in the inspector and you will see the control set popupmenu. This has been mentioned many times since it was changed for 2014r1.

Thanks, will try this.

Already looked and it is not there for the ContainerControl which I am using but I can find it with other controls. Please help.

Thanks

Ah sorry, I read ‘ContainerControls can not be part of a Control Set.’, from the Xojo docs.

Solution for ContainerControls:
You can add ContainerControls add runtime by creating them in code and embedding them with EmbedWithin or EmbedWithinPanel. Keep track of them in an array.
