assignToPanels method was removed

[baszach]

Hello,

I've come across a piece of legacy code of another dev using the method assignToPanels. This method doesn't seem to exist anymore. Here's the legacy code:

public function updateFieldsWithinPanels(NovaRequest $request, BaseResource $resource = null) {
return $this->assignToPanels(__('__SOME_TEXT__'), $this->updateFields($request));
}

Inside a Nova resource. What is this method doing and why was it removed?

Any help would be appreciated :)

The method was refactored in Nova 4 major release, you will need to update updateFieldsWithinPanels to match with the new code structure.

I understand that the method was refactored. My issue is that I don't fully understand the structure and functionality and cannot find it in the docs. I was hoping to get some info on the assignToPanels method because it doesn't exist anymore.

We generally don't documents change on non-public API. I also feels you doing something odd here and I don't want to just randomly make suggestions.

It seems odd to me too but the former developer did this...

Thanks for the quick answers!
