Frames are simply used to give the dialogue forms a nicer appearance.
They can be used to visually group other objects together. Frames are
almost the same as a box, except that the interior of the bounding box
is not filled. Use of frames can speed up drawing in certain
situations. For example, to place a group of radio buttons within an
FL_ENGRAVED_FRAME
. If we were to use an FL_FRAME_BOX
to
group the buttons, visually they would look the same. However, the
latter is faster as we don’t have to fill the interior of the bounding
box and can also reduce flicker. Frames are useful in decorating free
objects and canvases.
