Panel Top

The panel-top icon represents top-aligned panels, header sections, and upper interface areas in application layouts and design systems. Featuring a panel or container positioned at the top, this icon is commonly used to indicate header controls, top navigation toggles, toolbar visibility, and top-anchored interface elements in applications, design tools, and web interfaces.

In modern applications like browser tab bars, application title bars, or toolbar sections in design tools like Figma, you'll see this panel-top icon representing upper interface sections. It appears in customizable interfaces when toggling top toolbar visibility, in browser extensions when showing or hiding header controls, or in windowing systems when managing title bar and menu bar display options.

From a interface organization perspective, the top panel symbol communicates more than just 'upper section' - it specifically indicates primary navigation and control areas, the conventional location for global application commands and context, and the design pattern of placing essential tools and navigation in accessible top positions. This spatial convention helps users locate primary controls following established desktop and web interface patterns.

Panel Top is one of 458 icons in Akar Icons, made by Arturo Wibawa and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds PanelTopIcon to components/icons/akar-icons-panel-top.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed PanelTopIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Panel Top icon, or any of 458 Akar Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Panel Top is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Panel Top", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. PanelTopIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <PanelTopIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Akar Icons, Arturo Wibawa and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
