A Player Hand is a specialized Private Window for containing a hand of cards. It is designated as belonging to a particular side or sides. The owning sides must correspond to one or more of the sides defined in the definition of player sides.

The main difference between a Player Hand and a normal Private Window is that in a Player Hand, the contents are automatically laid out in a row instead of stacking like counters.

Like a Private Window, a Player Hand can only be manipulated by the owning player, and can optionally be completely hidden from other players. Cards can be manipulated in the hand (turned face up, etc.) and can be rearranged in order. Cards can be dragged into and out of the window to add/remove them from the hand.

Belongs to side: To configure the owner(s) of this window, type the name of one of the player sides and then click the Add button. Sides can also be removed by selecting one and clicking the Remove button.

Visible to all players: If selected, this window will be visible to all players; otherwise, it will only be visible to its owner(s).

Use same boards as this map: A Player Hand may designate another Map Window and thereby automatically use the same Boards as that other Map Window. If this field is left blank, then the Player Hand will use its own set of boards.

All other properties are the same as for ordinary Map Windows.
