# Panelization GUI | ||
|
||
The panelization feature of KiKit is also available via GUI in the KiCAD's PCB | ||
editor (Pcbnew). The main use-case for the GUI is to quickly construct the | ||
desired KiKit command and fine-tune the panel. It also serves as a quick help in | ||
case you are not sure about parameter naming. | ||
|
||
The GUI is designed to be run in a standalone instance of Pcbnew (not executed | ||
from a project) as the generated panel replaces the currently open board. | ||
|
||
You can invoke the GUI via clicking on the panelization icon: | ||
|
||
 | ||
|
||
Then the following window will open: | ||
|
||
 | ||
|
||
There are three parts of the window: | ||
|
||
- the left column where you can edit individual parameter sections. These | ||
sections are in 1:1 correspondence to the panelization CLI. For the help on | ||
their meaning please refer to [CLI documentation](panelizeCli.md) | ||
- the right column with: | ||
- the constructed KiKit command (that you can put into your Makefile) | ||
- the constructed JSON preset that you can save and later use. | ||
|
||
Note that both, the command and JSON preset, does not include a parameter if it | ||
is the same with the default, built-in, preset. | ||
|
||
Once you are happy with the parameters, you can click the "Panelize" button and | ||
the panel will appear in the Pcbnew work area. You can then edit the parameters | ||
and regenerate the panel. |
