Define custom window states
A window state is an indicator of the amount of portal page space that will be assigned to the content generated by a portlet. The JSR 168 Portlet Specification defines three window states: NORMAL, MAXIMIZED and MINIMIZED. In addition to these, custom window states are also defined by portal vendors.
| Property Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Custom Window States | Defines the custom window states that are used in this portlet application. Used in the <custom-window-state> element. Portlets can only use window states that are defined by the portal. If a custom window state defined in the deployment descriptor is not mapped to a custom window state provided by the portal, portlets must not be invoked in that window state. WebSphere Portal V5.0.2.x does not support any custom window states. |
| Language | Language information used in the xml:lang attribute to localize the description. |
| Description | A descriptive text about the custom window state. Used in <description>. |
