Panel Component

From Wiki077

Panel Components, a subset of all Components, are used to create custom control panels within TouchDesigner (also called Panels).

Examples are in Panel_COMPs.tox. There are 6 panel components:

Button COMP - interactive on/off buttons, including toggle, momentary, and sets of radio buttons

Container COMP - holds any number of other buttons, sliders, fields, containers, etc

Field COMP - lets you enter text strings and renders text

Select COMP - selects a Panel Component from any other location

Slider COMP - sliders in X, Y and XY, and outputs 1 or 2 channels

Table COMP - a concise and optimized way to create a grid of user interface gadgets

In 2D control panels, a Panel component is displayed within another panel (Parenting) in two possible ways:

by placing the panel inside another Panel component (normally a Container component).
by a node being attached to another node in the same network like in 3D Parenting.
