Standard TPanel located on the assembly panel, is commonly used as a control vessel. One advantage of the panel assembly is placed on a portion of the panel is called a panel, so that they move together with the panel. This is useful in the design stage.
Most functions Panel component in its Align property. For example, to display the title at the upper end of the form, and further assuming that want it in the middle, regardless of the user how to set the window size, simply set the Align property to alTop and Alignment property to taCenter, so the title is always in the center, is that simple .
There are many types of appearance of the panel, its appearance changed by BevelInner, BevelOuter, BorderStyle and BorderWidth properties.
