Customizing the workspace
Drop zones
Drop zones are areas onto which you can drop or move panels. As you drag a panel, the drop zones become
highlighted. The drop zone determines where and how the panel is inserted into the workspace. Dragging a panel to
a drop zone results in one of two behaviors: docking or grouping.
Docking
Drop zones along the edges of a panel, group, or window are docking zones. Docking a panel places it adjacent to the
existing group, resizing all groups to accommodate the new panel.

Dragging panel (A) onto docking zone (B) to dock it (C)
Grouping
The drop zone in the middle of a panel or group, as well as the zone along the tab area of a panel, are grouping zones.
Grouping a panel adds it to an existing group, placing it at the top of the stacking order. Grouping a panel does not
resize other groups.
