Adding content to your panel
You should treat your panel as an empty building block which can be developed
using WebPlus standard tools and features. By creating objects within the panel
area, they belong to the panel. This extends to objects such as text frames,
artistic text, tables, QuickShapes, and pictures. Dragging the panel around will
move its associated objects.
Hiding/showing your panel
Why would you want to hide your panel once you've designed it? The power of
panels comes with their ability to be hidden and then be shown as a result of
rolling over or clicking a page object. This means that buttons, pictures, and
gallery objects can be reveal more detailed information only when needed.
