Running out of pages?by jkhiser

So you have filled up all 48 pages in a layout and need more room?

One simple hack is to use show/hide panels to place two (or more) tabs on a page.

This example shows how to get started with the stacked panels.

Production example in the Jupiter X/Xm Manager master effects pages.  Not only does this save tabs, but only shows the pertinent controls.  (Note to self - need to update RD2000 with this master effects simplification.)

Thanks for this hack and all your other outstanding tuition, it is deeply appreciated by me. It would certainly help devs to have and easier way to select panels for editing...some naming and layer selection ability. Devs essentially need to backwards engineer their layouts, I guess...get everything perfect before assembly if we gonna use big panel stacks that occupy the same space in the final design. Hidden panels is certainly a game changer for MDP2.
