Plugin panel anatomy
- Plugin panels consist of three main sections: header, instructions and actions section. Layouts can vary to serve different content types and volume.
- Plugin panels have a fixed width of 320 px and a variable length depending on the content.
- It’s a good practice to limit the information as much as possible to be direct with the end user and optimizing screen space.
- We recommend a maximum panel height of 600 px.
Header
It contains the plugin name. If the plugin applies a visual layer to the network map, it’ll also include a toggle switch to activate the layer.
Plugin instructions
These change with the status of the plugin. You’ll find more details about plugin status below.
Actions section
This is a versatile section since it can include a range of components, such as lists, drop downs, filters, accordions, graphs …
