ETI panels

Moving panels to the top or bottom of the deck

The relative depth of a panel can be changed by either pulling the panel to the top of the deck or by pushing it to the bottom. In either case, all other panels remain at the same depth relative to each other.

SYNOPSIS

   int top_panel(panel)
   PANEL panel;
   
   int bottom_panel(panel)
   PANEL panel;

Function top_panel moves the panel pointed to by its argument to the top of the panel deck, while function bottom_panel moves the panel to the bottom of the deck.

Both functions leave the size of the given panel, the contents of its associated window, and the relations of the other panels in the deck wholly intact. Both return OK if the operation is successful, ERR if not. The functions fail if the panel pointer argument is NULL or if the panel is hidden by a previous call to function hide_panel described below.

To move the panel pointed to by panel1 to the top of the deck of panels and the panel pointed to by panel2 to the bottom of the deck, you can write the following:

   PANEL *panel1, *panel2;
   
   top_panel(panel1);
   bottom_panel(panel2);
