title: ExtJS 3.2: Hide central panel at layout "border"
body: <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/p00qF.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>Hello! In my project I have a window, whose structure is described on a picture. For some reasons, inherited from the previous versions of the project, I need to create a function that will hide parts of the window (panels). If I hide the panel C2 - everything is fine, works exactly as I wanted, but if I hide the panel C1, which has region: "center", the other panel does not occupy the region C1. It looks like a bug.</p>
  
  <p>I know that I'm doing something wrong, but I still  need some kind of hack to hide the central panels.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to reassign the region: "center" to the other panel, but it did not work.</p>
