Panels

Editor tabs are composed of panels with logically related information in the form of graphs, tables, lists, and so on. You can modify some of the parameters using various controls in the panels, such as buttons, text fields, and drop-down lists.

Some panels can be collapsed to make more room for other panels in the tab (using the black triangle show and hide button next to the panel name). To the right of the panel name, there are buttons to add and remove components, refresh data, switch modes, change settings, get online help about the panel, and more.

Most panels are unique, but some are similar for different tabs. Information for using each panel is provided in the description for the panel. To see this information, click the question mark button to the right of the panel name.
