Classes for Creation of Control Panels and Dialogs
This section contains technical details of working with classes for creation of controls panels and description of the relevant components of the MQL5 standard library.
The use of these classes will save time when creating the control panels for MQL5 programs (Expert Advisors and indicators).
MQL5 Standard Library (in terms of controls) is placed in the client terminal data folder, in the MQL5\Include\Controls.
The example of Expert Advisor, which illustrates the working of these classes can be found in MQL5\Expert\Examples\Controls.
