A panel is a both a container and a containee window. It serves mainly
as a geometry management device, but the
'border creates a
container with a border. Unlike a
pane% object, a
panel%
object can be hidden or disabled.
A panel% object has a degenerate placement strategy for
managing its children; it places them all in the upper left corner
and does not stretch any of them. The horizontal-panel%
and vertical-panel% classes provide useful geometry
management.

If the
'border style is specified, the window is created with
a thin border (only in this case, the client size of the panel may be
less than its total size). If
style includes
'deleted, then the panel is created as hidden,
and it does not affect its parent’s geometry; the panel can be made active later by calling
parent’s
add-child method.
