Control Panels are panels on a dashboard that contain objects that allow the user to interact with the dashboard.

In addition to titles, the control panel can contain filter parameters, query parameters and query refresh buttons. To open the Control Panel window, add a new control panel or edit an existing control panel object.

The control panel window consists of a work area and two tabs, the panel tab and the object tab.
