====== Ordering the Panels ====== One of the features of both flex boxes and grids is that their children can accept a special style: **order:#**. This enables the grid or flex box object to display their contents in an order unrelated to their actual html coded position. As a consequence, although panels in the APW my be ordered; Temperature, Rainfall, Winds, Pressure and Solar, you can alter this simply by adding a style **order:x;** and replacing the 'x' with a number to indicate the rank order of each panel. ==== How it works ==== * Direct children of the grid or flex box with no number are considered to have the number '0' and will be displayed in coding order. * Children with an order number will be displayed in numerical ascending order * Children with the same order number will continue to be displayed together in coding order. === Exceptions === There are always exceptions. This particularly applies to grids as they also support areas of the grid being named. If order numbers are used in a named grid then all content allocated to the named area and its numerical equivalent will appear in that one area. **Note** that named areas can occupy more than one grid area and that content will overlay in the order in which it is coded.
