Properties of a component are the followings: Height, Hint, Left, Name, Show hint, Top, Width, Color, Align.

Bevel inner - defines displaying style of visible edges of an inner bevel, creating illusion of volume, possible values are: none, lowered and raised. By default -none.

Bevel outer - defines displaying style of visible edges of an outer bevel, creating illusion of an volume, possible values are: none, lowered and raised. By default - raised.

Bevel width - defines width of inner and outer bevels. By default is equal to 1.

Border style - defines a marking mode of panel dimensions and can accept the following values: none (by default), single.

Bottom and right limit - defines limitation (in pixels) on the bottom (below) and on the right for a moved visual component. By default - 20.

To use Splitter component in the application, it is necessary:

- To place an element of control, for example, a Memo-field into the form and to align it along one of the form sides, having assigned Top or Bottom value for its property Align.

- To place a component Splitter and to assign to its property Align the same value, as property Align of the earlier pasted control element has.

- To repeat two previous operations for all elements of the form control.

- To assign Client value for property Align of the last element of control (that this element filled in all place, which has stayed in the form).

- By default splitters lines are displayed horizontally. However if necessary it is possible to set and vertical direction of splitters lines. For this purpose it is necessary to set Left or Right value for property Align.
