so yes it is, is a curstom containment, which is a completely different thing than a view (which is a shell feature and can't be changed at all by design) it is not possible to create a different panel view neither change the panel settings view, nor the sizing policies. What you can do is to add a custom action to the context menu, which will create a new dialog window in which you can put the settings controls you need -- Marco Martin
