    public class DecoratorPanel

extends SimplePanel

A `SimplePanel` that wraps its contents in stylized boxes, which can be used to add rounded corners to a `Widget`.

Wrapping a `Widget` in a "9-box" allows users to specify images in each of the corners and along the four borders. This method allows the content within the `DecoratorPanel` to resize without disrupting the look of the border. In addition, rounded corners can generally be combined into a single image file, which reduces the number of downloaded files at startup. This class also simplifies the process of using AlphaImageLoaders to support 8-bit transparencies (anti-aliasing and shadows) in ie6, which does not support them normally.

### getContainerElement

    protected Element getContainerElement()

  Description copied from class: `SimplePanel`
  Override this method to specify that an element other than the root element be the container for the panel's child widget. This can be useful when you want to create a simple panel that decorates its contents. Note that this method continues to return the `Element` class defined in the `User` module to maintain backwards compatibility.

  Overrides:
    `getContainerElement` in class `SimplePanel`
  Returns:
    the element to be used as the panel's container
