Composition is the easiest way of creating new controls. It mainly involves instantiating existing controls, configuring them and making them the constituent components. The properties of the constituent components are exposed through <a href="?page=Fundamentals.Components">subproperties</a>.

-One can compose a new control in two ways. One is to override the <tt>TControl::createChildControls()</tt> method. The other is to extend <tt>TTemplateControl</tt> (or its child classes) and write a control template. The latter is easier to use and can organize the layout constituent compoents more intuitively, while the former is more efficient because it does not require parsing of the template.
