The Picta Panel

Every picta panel can be collapsed or expanded. The panel header is always visible and shows:

• Picta name
• Duplicate icon — copies the picta with all its settings
• Trash icon — deletes the picta
• Up/down arrows (only when multiple pictas exist) — reorder pictas, like changing layers in the chart
• Chevron — expand or collapse the panel

When expanded, the panel also shows settings organized as:

1. Direct settings — text fields, number fields, dropdowns, and toggles shown immediately at the top
2. Sections — expandable sub-panels with additional controls
3. Shared settings — sections within sections, shared settings are used repeatedly across the picta panel, for instance the settings for a font are used for labels and for highlighted values, so the font section is a shared setting.

Not every setting or section applies to every picta type. DataPicta shows only the relevant options for the picta you're editing. For instance, the bars in a bar chart can have rounded corners, while a line chart cannot.
