Orientation

Selects the position of the panel on the screen. Click the required position for the panel.

Size

Specifies the size of the panel.

Expand

By default, a panel expands to the full length of the edge of the screen where it is located. A panel that does not expand can be moved away from the screen edges to any part of the screen.

Autohide

Makes the panel fully visible only when the mouse pointer is over it. The panel hides off-screen along its longest edge, leaving a narrow part visible along the edge of the desktop. Moving the mouse pointer over the visible part of the panel moves it back into view.

Show hide buttons

Displays the hide buttons at each end of the panel. Clicking a hide button moves the panel vertically, hiding it off-screen except for the hide button at the opposite end. Clicking this hide button restores the panel to being fully visible.

Arrows and hide buttons

Displays arrows on the hide buttons, if the hide button is enabled.
