Using the peripheral panes of the site views
About the site view pane
The navigation or links site views usually have a single pane, but you can also display up to three additional special-
purpose panes on the periphery of the main pane of a view:
Panorama pane Providesabird’s-eye view of theentiresite. Theviewcontainsaredviewbox that correspondsto
thecurrent view in themainpane. Youcan scroll theviewofthe site that is showninthe main pane by moving the
red view box in the panorama pane. You can do anything with the panorama pane that you can do with the main
pane—for example, select a page or drag a page to another page in the navigation view to make it that page’s child or
parent. The panorama pane is available in the navigation view and links view.
Scratch pane Shows two kinds of files that are stored in the site’s web-content folder and listed in the Files tab of the
site window: HTML pages that aren’t part of the site’s navigation hierarchy, and media files that aren’t referenced on
any HTML page listed in the Files tab. The scratch pane is available only in the navigation view.
You can drag HTML pages from the navigation view’s scratch pane to its main pane. You use a navigation view’s
scratch pane as you would its main pane, dragging a page to a target page in the main pane and positioning it so that
it becomes the parent, child, or sibling of the target page. Similarly, you can build up partial trees in the scratch pane
and drag them to target pages. (See “Adding empty pages and pending links to a hierarchy” on page 227 and
“Rearranging the parts of a hierarchy” on page 229.)
Reference pane Shows media objects embedded in one or more pages that are selected in the main or panorama
pane. By selecting different pages in the main pane, you can easily browse the embedded objects. The reference pane
doesn’t show media files linked to the HTML page—for example, a large image file linked to a thumbnail version of
the same image embedded in a page. The reference pane is available in the navigation view and links view.
In practice, you would probably open only one or two panes at a time, depending on your immediate need.

The navigation view shown has a wide orientation. If a navigation view’s orientation is tall, the panorama pane is on
the left, the scratch pane is on the right, and the reference pane is at the top. (
