In the Groups & Addons panel of the N-Panel, you can click on the name of an Add-on or Tab to control which Panels are displayed. The click logic is designed to manage visibility and “pinning” of Panels.
SUPERTABs Interaction Logic Overview (N-Panel)
1. Regular Click (Exclusive Click)
Purpose: Show only the Panel of the clicked item, one at a time.
Behavior:
- Clicking an item will unpin all other items (if any)
- Only the Panel of the clicked item will be displayed
- The clicked item becomes the active_item
Clicking the same item again:
- The system will deselect the item
- No Panel will be displayed (if there are no pinned items)
Summary:
Regular click = “Show only this Panel”
2. Shift + Click (Additive / Pinning Logic)
Purpose: Pin multiple Panels so they can remain visible simultaneously.
Behavior:
- Toggle pin status of the clicked item:
- If the item is not pinned, it will become pinned and its Panel stays visible
- If the item is already pinned, it will become unpinned and its Panel will hide (unless it is the active_item clicked normally)
- You can Shift + Click multiple items to pin several Panels at the same time
