+:mod:`curses.panel` --- A panel stack extension for curses.
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: curses.panel
+ :synopsis: A panel stack extension that adds depth to curses windows.
+.. sectionauthor:: A.M. Kuchling <amk@amk.ca>
+
+
+Panels are windows with the added feature of depth, so they can be stacked on
+top of each other, and only the visible portions of each window will be
+displayed. Panels can be added, moved up or down in the stack, and removed.
+

+
+Functions
+---------
+
+The module :mod:`curses.panel` defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: bottom_panel()
+
+ Returns the bottom panel in the panel stack.
+
+
+.. function:: new_panel(win)
+
+ Returns a panel object, associating it with the given window *win*. Be aware
+ that you need to keep the returned panel object referenced explicitly. If you
+ don't, the panel object is garbage collected and removed from the panel stack.
+
+
+.. function:: top_panel()
+
+ Returns the top panel in the panel stack.
+
+
+.. function:: update_panels()
+
+ Updates the virtual screen after changes in the panel stack. This does not call
+ :func:`curses.doupdate`, so you'll have to do this yourself.
+
+
+.. _curses-panel-objects:
+
+Panel Objects
+-------------
+
+Panel objects, as returned by :func:`new_panel` above, are windows with a
+stacking order. There's always a window associated with a panel which determines
+the content, while the panel methods are responsible for the window's depth in
+the panel stack.
+
+Panel objects have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.above()
+
+ Returns the panel above the current panel.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.below()
+
+ Returns the panel below the current panel.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.bottom()
+
+ Push the panel to the bottom of the stack.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.hidden()
+
+ Returns true if the panel is hidden (not visible), false otherwise.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.hide()
+
+ Hide the panel. This does not delete the object, it just makes the window on
+ screen invisible.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.move(y, x)
+
+ Move the panel to the screen coordinates ``(y, x)``.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.replace(win)
+
+ Change the window associated with the panel to the window *win*.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.set_userptr(obj)
+
+ Set the panel's user pointer to *obj*. This is used to associate an arbitrary
+ piece of data with the panel, and can be any Python object.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.show()
+
+ Display the panel (which might have been hidden).
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.top()
+
+ Push panel to the top of the stack.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.userptr()
+
+ Returns the user pointer for the panel. This might be any Python object.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.window()
+
+ Returns the window object associated with the panel.
