GUI Building
Panel Display in GUIDE Layout Area
While designing a GUI with GUIDE, if you place a panel on top of controls, the layout
remains as you specify in the layout area. However, in the running GUI, the panel
displays under the controls.
Compatibility Considerations
Previously, if you placed a panel on top of controls in the layout area, the panel
automatically moved under the controls in the design area and appeared under the
controls in the running GUI. Now, the panel remains as you place it in the layout area,
but displays under the controls in the running GUI. The best practice is to place the
panel in the layout area first, and then place the controls in the panel. This way, the
design area matches the appearance of the running GUI. For existing GUIs, you can
right-click the panel in the design area, and then select Send to Back.
