The tripane skin is the classic, three-pane skin that’s been with us for years but is still widely used. It includes a horizontal toolbar pane, a vertical navigation tabs pane, and a large topic content pane. If your table of contents is large and complex, or if you need an index, the tripane skin is for you. Learn how to create and apply a tripane skin to your projects.
