Customizing the metamodel : Modifying the aesthetic look of dialogs : Using the LAYOUT command within a GROUP
  
Using the LAYOUT command within a GROUP
You may specify a LAYOUT command within a GROUP. If you do, it overrides the LAYOUT command of the definition or CHAPTER (tab) that the Group is in, only for the properties in the group.
Example
The following USRPROPS.TXT code is used to create the Groups shown in the figure below.
RENAME DEFINTION "User 4" To "My Group Definition"
DEFINITION "My Group Definition"
{
CHAPTER "4-Col Layout"
LAYOUT { COLS 4 ALIGN OVER TAB }
GROUP "2-Column Group" {
LAYOUT { COLS 2 ALIGN OVER TAB }
PROPERTY "G1"{ EDIT Boolean LENGTH 1 DEFAULT "F"}
PROPERTY "G2"{EDIT Boolean LENGTH 1 DEFAULT "F"}
PROPERTY "G3"{ EDIT Boolean LENGTH 1 DEFAULT "F"}
PROPERTY "G4"{ EDIT Boolean LENGTH 1 DEFAULT "F"}
}
GROUP ""
{
LAYOUT { COLS 1 ALIGN OVER TAB }
PROPERTY "Group Property 5"{ EDIT Text Length 10}
PROPERTY "Group Property 6"{ EDIT Text Length 10}
}
}
Use of the GROUP and LAYOUT commands
