Abstract
A system that allows a programmer or user to dynamically create a user panel, including selecting the icons, for an iconic network program, or part of an iconic network program, within an iconic programming environment. The programmer or user may select a show-on-execute option for the panel which causes the panel to be displayed when any one of the icons within the panel is processed by the iconic programming system. The panel may also be secured by removing all panel options that would allow any change to the panel or the iconic network program.
