12<h1 id="SUMMARY">Panes</h1>
13<p>
14Panes are rectangular areas on the screen that display images and text. They are the basic unit in the formation of layout data. Five types of panes are used under LayoutEditor: null, picture, textbox, window, and boundary condition.<br>

18<h2 id="NullPane">Null Panes</h2>
19<p>
20A null pane is used when grouping and/or associating other panes.<br> Essentially, the null pane itself is not drawn.<br> <br> An itemized list of example applications is given below.<br> - Used as the parent pane of other panes.<br> - Used to specify the display position of game objects.<br>
21</p>

23<!-- ====================================================================== -->
24<h2 id="PicturePane">Picture Panes</h2>
25<p>
26A picture pane is used to lay out images on the screen.<br> Fine adjustments can be made for the display parameters of the image.
27</p>
28
29<!-- ====================================================================== -->
30<h2 id="TextBoxPane">Text box pane</h2>
31<p>
32A text box pane is used to lay out text strings.<br> Text box panes use NintendoWare binary font files as fonts.<br> Parameter adjustments for a text string, such as changing the color, size, or character spacing, can be made for a text box pane.<br>

34</p>

36<!-- ====================================================================== -->
37<h2 id="WindowPane">Window pane</h2>
38<p>
39A window pane is used to create window objects by combining multiple textures.<br> Create windows by setting an image for the part of the pane called a &quot;frame&quot; and the part inside the frame called the &quot;contents.&quot;<br>
40</p>
41
42<!-- ====================================================================== -->
43<h2 id="BoundingRegionPane">Boundary condition pane</h2>
44<p>
45A boundary condition pane is used to position the boundary condition area.<br>
46</p>
47
48<!-- ====================================================================== -->
49<h2 id="SizeAndScale">Size and Scale</h2>
50<p>
51<B>Size </B>and <B>scale </B>are the numerical values that specify the pane size.<br> <B>Size </B>indicates the size of the pane itself.<br> <B>Scale </B>indicates the scale value of the parent-child hierarchical structure.<br> Accordingly, changing the <B>Scale </B>value when setting the parent-child hierarchy will affect the child panes.<br> Changing the <B>Size </B>value does not have any such effect.<br> For window panes, changing the <B>Scale </B>value changes the size of the entire window (i.e., the frame and the content region).  However, changing the <B>Size </B>changes only the size of the content region, and not the frame size.<br> Decide when to use each based on the situation.
