Taurus Device Panels User's Interface
======================================

There are two different widgets that can be used to provide a view on a Taurus
Device: :class:`TaurusDevicePanel` and :class:`TaurusDevPanel`.
The first is a compact widget that gives access to attributes and commands
of a given device. The second is a full main window application that
provides the same access plus a device selector and a trend widget in a more
configurable (but less compact way).
