default name to each screen (Screen 1, Screen 2, Screen 3,...).
The maximum number of screens in a file is 255. The actual
number allowed depends on available memory in the terminal.
2. Accept the name or enter a unique name (up to 32 characters) in
the Name box. Use descriptive names to identify screens.
3. Accept the number, representing the screen’s position in the
application file window, or enter a number in the Number box.

default is black. This field applies only to color and grayscale
terminals.

A blank PanelView screen opens showing the screen number and
name in the title bar.
