The Al or Alpha Box background element is a partially transparent rectangle with rounded corners. Its property page has 3 properties you can set:

w - Width in pixels

h - Height in pixels

r - Corner radius in pixels

The Alpha Box is a good element for grouping: i.e. to show that some TCPmaker Controls belong together in some way.

Now that we have placed an Alpha Box on our layout, the next step will be to start moving the LED Indicators onto the Alpha Box, to show that they belong together. The next page shows what happens.
