Description

TSplitter is a vertical or horizontal bar that can be placed on a panel or form, to separate sub-panels functionally and allow re-sizing of the sub-panels.

The splitter extends for the full height (if vertical) or full width (if horizontal) of the parent control (form or panel) and is anchored to the edges; its position along the length or height of the parent is determined by the programmer or user by moving the whole control with the mouse, and its size can be adjusted using the sizing bars and with the ResizeAnchor property.
