-Custom topic panel looks much like the [[traditional topic panel]]. Top of the page contains topic base name, subject locator and subject identifiers. Below that are all the query groups. Each group may contain several queries. Query results are viewed as information tables. Each table can view topics, characters strings and numbers. Number of table rows and columns depends on the [[query language]] script that generates the information.
