Panels are similar to rectangles, except panels can have a border.
They are useful for providing emphasis.
You can configure the border style of the panel and assign a hollow
or solid fill pattern.

or edit the panel. You can draw any size of panel.

Wedges or pie-shapes are partial ellipses or closed arcs. You can
draw wedges from one to four quadrants. Wedges always have a fill
style and can have any line style or width.
When you first draw a wedge, it appears as an ellipse. Select one of
the handles and drag the pointer around the circumference of the
ellipse to reduce the curve to three, two, or one quadrant of the
ellipse.
Tip: To draw quadrants of a perfect circle, hold the Shift key as you
draw the wedge.
