COMP Children Page
Parameters - Children Page
The Children parameter page controls aspects of the Panel's children alignment, size, and position.
Align
align
- ⊞ - This menu allows you to specify how the children inside the Panel Component will be laid out. The options Layout Grid Rows, Layout Grid Columns and Match Network Nodes will scale the Panel Component's children to fit the Component. They use the Align Order of each of the children to determine the ordering of the children.

Margin
margin
- ⊞ - The four fields allow you to specify the space that surrounds the Panel Component. The margin is the space between the Panel Component's border and the outer edge.
The Margin is defined in absolute pixels and does not stretch with the window, as a result margin is not reflected in the node's panel viewer but only when the parent is drawn in a floating window.
