Description
The StaticControl implements functionality common to controls that do not interact with the user but simply present visual information. Its derived classes are Label, Picture and Graffiti. This class is not instantiable, derivable or cloneable. The only instances available to the programmer are those automatically generated by HB++ when you place a control on a form.
This class only has internal functionalities and offers no methods, properties or events to program.
