title: Additional attributes of Panel controls
author: Armin Rigo

<table border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=4>

<tr><td class="doccode">
sections
</td><td>
The sections: (columns, rows) where rows and columns are two tuples of floats giving the position of the separation between adjacent rows (resp. columns). For example, (0.1,0.8) means three columns, the first one between 0% and 10% of the width, the second one between 10% and 80% of the width, and the third one between 80% and 100% of the width. Be careful about tuples with a single value: when there are exactly two columns or two rows, don’t write (0.6) because Python interprets this as a float; instead, write (0.6,). The default value for one row and one column is ((),()). Use negative floats to prevent the user from resizing himself the sections.
