Control vs. Component

  • A component does not draw itself on the form, but a control draws itself on the form or on another control. Both the Components and the Controls can be dropped onto a design surface.
  • Examples:
    • A Timer object is an example of a component
    • A Button object is an example of a control
  • All controls are also components, but not all components are controls.
  • In a ScriptoForm script, both controls and components are collectively instantiated in the Controls region.
