TIS Board - Adjust Portlet

Summary

This operator modifies properties of a group of portlets. The properties that can be modified by this operator can be found in the List of Portlet Properties.

The operator is applied on a result table with three text columns containing

the identifier of the portlets to be modified, which is the "Name (identifier)" property of the portlets, a general portlet property (see List of Portlet Properties),
the internal name of the property (see column "Internal name" in List of Portlet Properties), and
the value to be assigned to the property (see columns "Type" and "Description" in List of Portlet Properties).

Each row of the table defines a property value for a group. A recalculation of the data node adjusts all portlets' properties as defined in the table and the settings.

The recalculation can be triggered manually in the Data Node in TIS Editor or by a portlet event (see Event Handling with Portlets).

Example

In Portlet Designer	Enter an identifier as "Name" property in the portlet you want to adjust. This identifier has to be unique for the Project from which the portlet should be adjusted.
In TIS Editor	Create a Data Node with a table (e.g., the Create table operator) containing the three text columns described above and enter values in the table.
In TIS Editor	Add the operator TIS Board - Adjust Portlet and select columns accordingly
Optional: Bind it to an event	You can bind the recalculation of the operation, i.e., the adjustment of the portlet, to an event, see Event Handling with Portlets. For example, this way the portlet can be adjusted on logon.

Examples

Example: Collapse specific Portlets when User logs on

Situation	To make screens nicer, it canbe helpful to collapse some portlets at log on. User can open them whenever they are needed, but the Board always starts with selected collapsed portlets to help with an easy to understand start.
Settings	This Portlet should be collapsed when open. Give it an ID in the Portlet Designer Define a data node in the Project with the table and the Change Portlet Operator And at any portlet we specify an action for the logon (=Anmelden) Event refering to this node.
Result	The portlet is collapsed after logon
