[11:56:43 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> hey peterk_ got your email about the portlet mode/state parameters
[11:56:57 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> the issue is with maximizing a portlet
[11:57:09 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I believe that is passed in as a XSLT parameter to the transformer
[11:58:00 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> my 'solution' right now is the SaxFilter that looks at all the portlets being rendered has a reference to the TransformationFilter and gets the Transformer from it
[11:58:12 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I'm not sure this is a very valid solution though
[11:58:34 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and it definetly relies on the transform not starting until the endDocument event
[11:59:10 CDT(-0500)] <peterk_> right, that's not very good
[11:59:47 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> the minimized and edit/help/view I can do via XML attributes in startElement
[11:59:50 CDT(-0500)] <peterk_> hmm ... so all this is to allow portlet to focus on itself by switching to a maximized state during the action processing?
[11:59:56 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but maximized is a bit of a problem
[12:00:28 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> well right now the portlet changing it's state in any way doesn't affect the style sheet rendered UI
[12:00:54 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so the goal is to have a strong connection between the actuall WindowStates of things renderings in a user's layout and what the style sheets are doing
[12:01:06 CDT(-0500)] <peterk_> right, I understand.
[12:01:35 CDT(-0500)] <peterk_> but let's focus on that maximized state. How can it change ? 1. by incoming request param (i.e. user hits chrome button) or 2. by portlet changing its state
[12:01:36 CDT(-0500)] <peterk_> right?
[12:01:43 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[12:01:44 CDT(-0500)] <peterk_> and 2. can only happen during action processing
[12:02:05 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and a portlet can change its state via a RenderUrl, ActionUrl or via a direct API call in processAction
