Hmm I must not be expressing myself clearly.
- I do want it to group the buttons together when nessesary (I didn't say I like it but that is what I want)
- When the buttons are not grouped the text in the button is OK (what I expect i.e. the same as the apss title bar)
- When the buttons are grouped there is no text in the group button. This is what I have a problem with. Why isn't there any text?
