# Stop List widgets

The Stop List is a list of widgets which may not appear on the Widget Palette.

The Stop List is configured either through setting the visu.stopList resource, or through the visu_config utility.

The visu.stopList resource consists of a comma separated list of widget class names (by default empty so all widgets appear on the Palette).

Any widgets which are mentioned in the Stop List, and which are referenced from designs loaded into WorkShop Visual will correctly appear within the Design Area, but may not be selected.

The visu.stopList resource can be changed between invocations of the tool; however if the Stop List was constructed using visu_config, you must rebuild WorkShop Visual using visu_config to remove widgets from the Stop List and hence replace them back onto the Widget Palette.
