An hbox tag is defined by using a : colon in an item tag delimited by square braces.
This example creates a hbox container containing widgets a, b and c. These widgets won't be aligned in the grid.
GRID
{
[a:b:c ]
[d|e|f ]
}
END

Hbox tags are useful when the form contains large widgets in a small number of cells in one row, and don't want to have dependencies.
Figure 3. Using an HBox tag
We can modify the Form item dependencies in grids example, using hbox
tags:
GRID
{
[a:b ][f ]
[c:d ][e ]
}
