The widget can be resized and moved via the mouse. Additionally it can have "sticky"
properties to any of the GUI form's borders.
To get NeXtMidas to hold a plot in this MidasDisplay widget, right-click on this
widget on the form and select Rename and enter
the ID of the NeXtMidas plot in your macro as the variable name.

So in our case, we will name the variable "plot1" in the popup dialog because our
macro defining the plot look like plot/id=plot1 ... Note: ensure that the "F" (for Field) is selected, and not "L" (for Local), otherwise
your MidasDisplays will not bind to the macro.

Repeat the above steps for another seven MidasDisplay widgets
to make a total of eight MidasDisplay widgets. Rename the widget variables to
match their appropriate plot or list. Place the widgets similar to the Macros Graphics
Lab 2 layout for the plots and lists. Your result should look similar to the one below.
