Hi Canvas,

When I was browsing the forum a couple weeks ago I think I saw someone had asked if it is possible to have both a right and left side panel, and the answer was yes, but the css needs to be modified. Is that right? (I looked but wasn't able to re-find that post today.)

On my page I have a functioning right side panel. I want to add a left side panel as well. What do I need to do/ change/ modify?

Thank you!

Hello,

Multiple Side Panels are currently not supported out of the box and will need major modifications/customizations. You will need to Duplicate all the CSS/JS Codes related to Side Panels and rename it to #side-panel-2. Then you can place the Duplicated element on your HTML Page accordingly.

Hope this Helps!

Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.

Thank you very much for the quick reply on a Saturday. Yes, this helps, and I'd like to try it.

Could you tell me which files have the code that needs to be duplicated and renamed?

Thank you very much

Nevermind. I'm sure that request is outside the scope of support.

Will multiple panels be supported in the v 6 release?

Thanks

I used a modal instead and it worked best.

Hello,

Thanks for your Patience!

While we do not recommend using Multiple Side-Panels, Headers or Footers as these are Unique Elements and the Lighter the Page, the better. However, if you would still like to include these, you can find the #side-panel related codes in the style.css and js/functions.js Files.

We are not really sure if we would be introducing support for multiple Side Panels in Canvas 6, however, it would be great if you have any suggestions or opinions/example usage scenarios where multiple Side Panels would be helpful.

Hope this Helps!

Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.

PS. Asking to find which codes are in what files are certainly not outside the scope of support! :)
