Use a border when you want to create logical groupings of controls within a window. For example, within a multimedia control panel you might use borders to separate the audio controls from the video controls.
When you implement a border area, you provide a label for the grouping. The CommonPoint application system automatically lays out the border area and the controls it contains for you.
The user cannot interact with the border area, it is used to provide a visual cue that shows users which controls perform related functions.
