![]() If you are familiar with web development, a Panorama XML file closely resembles an HTML5 document, a CSS file is nearly identical to its web counterpart (without the complexity of browser compatibility), and JS files are the same JavaScript you're familiar with. Events are useful to simplify many common tasks when creating custom UI with Panorama. They are similar to javascript functions, but have different rules around routing and handling. Panorama events are a way to communicate between different Panels. See: Dota 2 Workshop Tools/Panorama/Events They can be found here:Ĭontent/dota_addons/ADDON_NAME/panorama/scripts/custom_game/*.js JS files are Javascript code that allows your UI to respond to user input or changing game state.

For example, a scoreboard may consist of a "root" XML file for the main scoreboard layout, a second "team" XML file that describes how each team is represented, and a third "player" XML file that describes how each player on each team is represented.ĬSS files describe how the elements from your XML are presented.

XML files are the skeleton of your data: they describe what panels are in your UI and their hierarchical layout. (In web terms, a Panel is basically an HTML element.) Everything you see in a Panorama UI - labels, images, buttons - is a Panel. Panels are the building blocks of any Panorama UI. See: Dota 2 Workshop Tools/Panorama/Panels
