# Info Panel - Functional Overview

The Info Panel is a collapsible side panel that displays context-sensitive help and information for the active report.

## Purpose

Provides context for a report — such as the dimension, filter, or dataset driving the current view — together with help relevant to the active report. Closing the panel restores the full width of the report view.

## Opening and closing the panel

- The Info Panel button at the top-right of the report view opens the panel, which slides in from the right.
- Selecting the same button again hides the panel and restores the full report view.

## Panel contents

When open, the Info Panel presents two tabs:

- **Context** — information about the current report selection. In the example above it shows the active dimension and filter (`Sciences.Arts and Sciences - Interest = "1"`) and a **DataSet** button.  Selecting the DataSet button opens a [DataSet Scratch](/v1/docs/dataset-scratch) for the active [DataSet](/v1/docs/dataset)
- **Help** — context-sensitive help for the current view.
