 # The Widget Bin Panel #

 The Widget Bin can be activated via the main
 menu: *Edit* > *Show Widget Bin* . FLUID will remember its
 state and dimensions.

 The Widget Bin is a great way to quickly create a GUI project. Clicking
 an icon in the bin will create the corresponding code or widget node inside
 or right after the selected widget. If the parent widget is not supported
 for this widget type, FLUID tries to find a better position. If that fails,
 a dialog box will pop up, explaining what type of parent node is required.

 The Window and Widget Class icons can be dragged onto the desktop,
 creating a new window or widget at the drop position.

 All other widget types can be dragged from the bin into a window, or a group
 inside a window. When dropped, they will be positioned close to the drop point
 and inserted into the widget tree as the last child of the chosen group.
 The order of widgets within their group can be changed with
 the `F2` and `F3` keys.
