By default, all panes in the File Cabinets window are pinned to their current positions. When panes are pinned, they remain displayed as long as the File Cabinets window is open. You can unpin panes so that they are automatically hidden when not in use. To unpin a pane, click the pin within the pane's caption. Pins are available only on panes that are currently docked to the File Cabinets window.
When a pane is unpinned, its caption is displayed at the edge of the File Cabinets window. The pane itself is not displayed until you place your pointer over the caption. The following example illustrates what happens when the Folder Tree pane is unpinned. In the picture on the left, the pane is not displayed, but the Folder Tree caption is available so the user can access it. In the picture on the right, the Folder Tree pane is displayed when the user places the pointer over the caption.
To pin a pane that is currently unpinned, click the pin in the pane's caption. When pinned, the pane remains displayed in the File Cabinets window.
If you unpin a pane that is sharing a docking position, all panes that share the docking position will be unpinned. The displayed caption reflects only the most recent pane you viewed. When you place your pointer over the caption, the pane and the tabs of any shared panes are displayed.
