Panel
Overview
A Panel is similar to a window although it should be viewed as either a utility or tool window. It differs from a regular Window in that: It uses a smaller title bar, and does not have minimize or maximize capabilities. It uses slightly different styles than a normal window. It disappears automatically if the application looses focus and reappears when it regains it. Panels are useful as "Tool" windows. For example, in Photoshop the floating set of buttons to select the current action (select, bucket, fill, etc) would be a panel. Panels inherit all of the capabilities with the exception of window state capabilities (maximize, minimize and fullscreen).
