description:

Get the object that is combined with the code object to which this method is applied.

Code objects can be combined with other graphic objects such as curves or circles to add intelligence to those objects. This method is used to access the underlying object. As an example consider an event transition object that is fundamentaly a curve connecting two state objects. To get at the curve in order to modify it use the get_combined method.

The underlying object in a frame object in XEBOT is a group object. To access each of the controls within the frame, the controls must be extracted from the underlying group object.
