-    \title Group Box Example
-    \examplecategory {User Interface Components}
-    \ingroup examples-widgets
-    \brief The Group Box example shows how to use the different kinds of group
-    boxes in Qt.
-
-    Group boxes are container widgets that organize buttons into groups,
-    both logically and on screen. They manage the interactions between
-    the user and the application so that you do not have to enforce
-    simple constraints.
-
-    Group boxes are usually used to organize check boxes and radio
-    buttons into exclusive groups.
-
-    \borderedimage groupbox-example.png
-
-    The Group Boxes example consists of a single \c Window class that
-    is used to show four group boxes: an exclusive radio button group,
-    a non-exclusive checkbox group, an exclusive radio button group
-    with an enabling checkbox, and a group box with normal push buttons.
-
-    \section1 Window Class Definition
-
-    The \c Window class is a subclass of \c QWidget that is used to
-    display a number of group boxes. The class definition contains
-    functions to construct each group box and populate it with different
-    selections of button widgets:
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.h 0
-
-    In the example, the widget will be used as a top-level window, so
-    the constructor is defined so that we do not have to specify a parent
-    widget.
-
-    \section1 Window Class Implementation
-
-    The constructor creates a grid layout and fills it with each of the
-    group boxes that are to be displayed:
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 0
-
-    The functions used to create each group box each return a
-    QGroupBox to be inserted into the grid layout.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 1
-
-    The first group box contains and manages three radio buttons. Since
-    the group box contains only radio buttons, it is exclusive by
-    default, so only one radio button can be checked at any given time.
-    We check the first radio button to ensure that the button group
-    contains one checked button.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 3
-
-    We use a vertical layout within the group box to present the
-    buttons in the form of a vertical list, and return the group
-    box to the constructor.
-
-    The second group box is itself checkable, providing a convenient
-    way to disable all the buttons inside it. Initially, it is
-    unchecked, so the group box itself must be checked before any of
-    the radio buttons inside can be checked.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 4
-
-    The group box contains three exclusive radio buttons, and an
-    independent checkbox. For consistency, one radio button must be
-    checked at all times, so we ensure that the first one is initially
-    checked.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 5
-
-    The buttons are arranged in the same way as those in the first
-    group box.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 6
-
-    The third group box is constructed with a "flat" style that is
-    better suited to certain types of dialog.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 7
-
-    This group box contains only checkboxes, so it is non-exclusive by
-    default. This means that each checkbox can be checked independently
-    of the others.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 8
-
-    Again, we use a vertical layout within the group box to present
-    the buttons in the form of a vertical list.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 9
-
-    The final group box contains only push buttons and, like the
-    second group box, it is checkable.
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 10
-
-    We create a normal button, a toggle button, and a flat push button:
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 11
-
-    Push buttons can be used to display popup menus. We create one, and
-    attach a simple menu to it:
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 12
-
-    Finally, we lay out the widgets vertically, and return the group box
-    that we created:
-
-    \snippet widgets/groupbox/window.cpp 13
