Every Helm Panel has a special component called the “RootPanel.” This cannot be deleted, and has various properties that affect the overall appearance and operation of the panel, such as panel size and background. Event Scripts for the Root Panel can be run at panel startup and shutdown.
Various miscellaneous script Actions are available for the Root Panel, including the ability to launch other documents and applications.
