EpiGroupBox / rectangle input control - child element background color

ERP 10

I am working on a configurator and I want to group controls together. When I place controls on to the group box they don’t take on the background color of the groupbox. How can I make the controls children of the rectangle / EpiGroupBox or share its background color?

I was trying to use the tutorial by @josecgomez (Jose C Gomez) but that only changed the background color of the list part of the combo and not the label part.

Well after digging around with ILSpy I figured out how to do it, in case anyone else ever wants to know:

Inputs.Section1.Control.Controls.Add(((InputControlValueBound<Ice.Lib.Framework.EpiLabel,String>)Inputs[Inputs.CmbManufacturer.Control.EpiLabel].Value).Control);
Inputs.Section1.Control.Controls.Add(Inputs.CmbManufacturer.Control);

Were Section1 is my group box and CmbManufacturer is the combo box I want to add to the group box.

Hmm, actually this seems to be screwing up the data binding or something, when ever I select a value for the combo box now I get the following error:

Anyone have any idea why that might be?
