KG Panels Help

I'm trying to get kgPanels to config for my portraits (using zMob) to where if I don't have a target, the panel im using behind my targets portrait will disappear. Any suggestions?

I think you are having the same issue I have been searching for an answer to all morning. I DO NOT want a panel if I don't have a target and want it to appear when I do. I have anchored my panels to the Unitframe of choice as recommended in almost every post on every addon forum and wiki. However, this isn't giving me any associativity to the parent frame. Specifically, these are the frames I am trying parent to and control visibility based off from.

Quartz - Quartz3CastBarPlayer
Bartender4 - BT4BarPetBar
Shadowed UnitFrames - SUFUnittarget, SUFUnittargettarget

Alright, I found the answer to my problem might be able to help you as well. There is a significant difference between the ParentFrame and Anchor Frame. Make sure to Parent to the frame you want to control the visibility of, in my case it was my Pet Frame in ShadowedUF.

Right. Think of it this way:

An anchor keeps a boat in place.
A parent gives you permission to go out to see your friends.
