If you need to attach an object to the certain layout item - make the following steps:
1. Create an object on the page.
For example, a <div> element with the id “objId” and with some text inside it.
2. Attach the object to the layout item:
<div id="objId"> Some text </div> <script> dhxLayout.cells("a").attachObject("objId"); // or var obj = document.getElementById("objId"); dhxLayout.cells("a").attachObject(obj); </script>
By default, panels have 'overflow:hidden' style.
In this case the panel is not able to display a whole object. To correct this - specify the following style for an object:
<div id="objId" style="width:100%;height:100%;overflow:auto;...">
Now the panel will display the scroll bar in case an object does not fit panel's size.
