# PanelState

Enumerates the two states a `SAIFPanel` can be in: `Expanded` and `Collapsed`.

## Purpose
- Gives `SAIFPanel.PanelState` a closed, strongly-typed pair of values instead of a boolean or string flag.

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.V2`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.V2` (packaged in `SAIF.BOF.Presentation.Web.Infragistics111.nuspec`)

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Expanded | `Expanded` | Panel content is visible. |
| Collapsed | `Collapsed` | Panel content is hidden via inline style [BR-V2-049](../../business-rules.md#br-v2-049-collapsed-state-hides-content-via-inline-style). |
