    #then the groupbox

    %gb=$new(groupbox,%widget)

    %gb->$setTitle(Login)

    %gb->$setAlignment("Left")

    #now we create the labels and lineedits.

    %labeluser=$new(label,%gb)

    %labeluser->$settext(User: )

    %labelpass=$new(label,%gb)

    %labelpass->$settext(Pass: )

    %inputuser=$new(lineedit,%gb)

    %inputpass=$new(lineedit,%gb)

    %inputpass->$setechomode("password")

    #now lets' layouting the groupbox's element's.

    %layoutgb=$new(layout,%gb)

    %layoutgb->$setmargin(20)

    %layoutgb->$addwidget(%labeluser,0,0)

    %layoutgb->$addwidget(%labelpass,1,0)

    %layoutgb->$addwidget(%inputuser,0,1)

    %layoutgb->$addwidget(%inputpass,1,1)

    # now we create a fake widget and managing the two buttons layout.
