4.5 Portlet states
Portlet states determine how the portlet is displayed in the portal. The state of the portlet is stored in the PortletWindow.State object and can be queried for optimizing processing based on state. The three states of a portlet are:
| Normal The portlet is displayed in its initial state as defined when it was installed.
|
| Maximized The portlet view is maximized and takes over the entire body of the portal replacing all the other portal views.
|
| Minimized By default only the portlet title bar is visible inside the portlet page. You can modify the skin do display the portlets content in a minimized state. When doing this you test for the state before generating content. If the state is minimized you should only generate minimal content.
