1. Re: JBoss Portal 2.0 Usability
mholzner Jun 24, 2005 3:22 PM (in response to kriscott)can you elaborate ?
What version of portal?
Is this with the default portal, or your own extensions?
what page, what portlets are involved in this?
In theory this is how it should work: maximized portlets take over the entire page, if normalized or minimized they go back to their original position. The maximized (and other window state behavior) is handled by the LayoutStrategy (set via a portal property, or a page property if overwritten for the page) -

I am running JBoss Portal 2.0(default) in Fedora Core 4 and FireFox 1.0
If you clieck on test portlet > test, the content porlet moves from right colum to lower left. That's just one example I was able to re-create. -

mholzner Jun 24, 2005 4:44 PM (in response to kriscott)ok, got you.
The (confusing) issue here is that 'test' is a page. Each page is completely independent from the page you came from. So when you go to the portal, you get to the default page. that page contains 3 portlets (user , menu, CMS) . When you click on the 'test' link in the menu portlet, you actually swop out the page, and now the 'test' page is active , and takes over the entire browser. On the test page there are 4 portlets (test, hello, one without a name (null), and Content).
While all the pages share the same layout (unless a page overwrites the layout to use for that page), each page decides what portlet goes into what region. So if the default and the test page both contain the CMS portlet, but decide to place it in different regions, you see what you see.
...boy , that explanation is more complex than it should be ;)
