SuperPanel for ASP.NET Web Forms provides the following unique key features:
- Rounded Corners
If you have ever designed rounded corners in a web app then you know how hard it can be. SuperPanel makes rounded corners easy and there are no limitations to the dimensions of the box. The corners will work and move fluidly with the panel. Adding rounded corners to your panels is as easy as setting a single property!
- Resizable
The SuperPanel can optionally allow your end users to resize to their liking. When enabled, your users can grab the edges or corners to drag the box to the size they prefer. This is a great feature to add customizable layout in your web app. It is also beneficial for those with very small or very large screen resolutions. SuperPanel also supports liquid layout and will expand to fit its content.
- Client-side Scrolling API
Use the JavaScript API to scroll to any position of the panel. The API can be called by specifying (X,Y) coordinates, an (X,Y) offset from the current position or a DOM element to target. This API is great for navigating large graphics, maps, charts, or even lengthy content.
- Template Control
Just like the asp:Panel control, SuperPanel can contain any HTML markup or ASP.NET controls. Any controls placed in the template is also accessible via code behind. Controls can be added at runtime as well using the Controls.Add() methodology. It is just as easy to use as asp:Panels with ton of bells and whistles.
- Custom Scrollbars
SuperPanel provides a custom scrollbar to take the place of Windows intrinsic scrollbars. The custom scrollbars mimic the function of a normal Windows scrollbar and are synchronized with scroll position. You can specify how each scroll bar behaves (Horizontal and Vertical bar respectively); the options are Hidden, Visible, and Auto. You can also specify the alignment of scroll bars. Position the Vertical scroll bar to the left or right side of SuperPanel, and position the Horizontal scroll bar at the top or bottom of the SuperPanel.
- Theming
With just a click of th e SmartTag, change the panel's look by selecting one of the 6 premium themes (Arctic, Midnight, Aristo, Rocket, Cobalt, and Sterling). Optionally, use ThemeRoller from jQuery UI to create a customized theme.
