Working with Cast panel groups

Each Cast panel and panel group has an Options menu located in its upper right corner. The Options menu contains items for grouping, closing, and renaming panels.

To use a Cast panel Options menu:

• Click the Options menu control in the upper right of the panel, and select the desired menu item.

  Help launches the page in the help system that is relevant to the current panel.

  Group [Panel name] With lets you group the currently selected tab in a panel group with another Cast panel or panel group.

  Rename Panel Group opens the Rename Panel Group dialog box where you can rename the Cast panel group.

  Maximize Panel Group maximizes the panel group to occupy the entire height of the docking channel.

  Close Panel Group closes the panel group.

To group a Cast panel with another Cast panel or Cast panel group:

1. Select a Cast panel or a tab within a Cast panel group.
2. From the panel's Options menu, select Group [Panel Name] With, then select a panel or panel group name from the submenu that appears.

To remove a panel (tab) from a Cast panel group:

1. Select a tab within a Cast panel group.
2. From the panel group's Options menu, select Group [Panel Name] With, then select New Panel Group from the submenu that appears.

   The selected panel opens in its own floating panel. The new panel assumes the name previously assigned to it.

   Note: The New Panel Group submenu option is dimmed if the panel group only contains a single panel.

To rename a Cast panel group:

1. Select Rename Panel Group from the panel's Options menu.
2. In the Rename Panel Group dialog box, type a new name for the panel group in the Panel Group Name text box, and click OK.

To rearrange the order of tabs within a Cast panel group:

1. Select a tab within the Cast panel group.
2. Select Group [Panel Name] With from the panel group's Options menu, then choose the name of the Cast panel group that contains the selected panel.

   The tab is moved to the last (rightmost) position in the panel group.
