When the title is clicked, judge whether the panel is visible. If visible, hide the panel, push the widgets below, rotate the angle of the arrow by 180, and set animation; if it is not visible, show the panel, push the widgets below, and rotate the angle of the arrow by 180.

Select all the widgets and copy them below.
