Begin a group. Must be matched with a call to EndGroup.
When you begin a group, the coordinate system for GUI controls are set so (0,0) is the top-left corner of the group. All controls are clipped to the group.
Groups can be nested - if they are, children are clipped to their parents.
This is very useful when moving a bunch of GUI elements around on screen. A common use case is designing your menus to fit on a specific screen size, then centering the GUI on larger displays.
