[Users] Open panel when a layer is activated or how to use the right mouse button

[Robert Buckley]

Hi,

I have a map with about 10 layers added to it.  For 4 of the layers I have a 
grids with their attributes. Up until now I have rendered the grids in a 
tabpanel in the east region of a viewport. I am now not sure if this is user 
friendly because there are more than 4 layers in the map and the logic is not 
immediately apparent.

I would prefer to either...1. have the grid open when at least one of the layers 

is active..or, 2. active the rightmouse button to show an option to open the 
attributes. I would then render the grid in a, ext.window.

Unfortunately I don´t know how to do either. Could anyone please give me tip 
regarding 1. the right mouse button showing a menu, or 2 how to manipulate the 
properties of a panel using a button?

Here is my project.
