[09:54:31 CST(-0600)] <athena> hey EricDalquist, just wanted to ping you about the layout.json stuff
[09:54:48 CST(-0600)] <athena> managed to close out a couple other things i was working on - is that something i can help out with today?
[09:54:54 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah, got caught up in some other tasks yesterday afternoon
[09:55:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[09:55:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well you can't really test it yet but do you want add a portlet to the functional test portlets that supports dashboard window state
[09:55:42 CST(-0600)] <athena> sure, i could do that
[09:55:46 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and sets the badge property on dashboard render?
[09:56:02 CST(-0600)] <athena> at a more base level though, is there something i can do to help get things back to working?
[09:56:23 CST(-0600)] <athena> have a couple big demos tomorrow, but think it's probably more useful to help out than to spend the time reverting changes
[09:57:06 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> right, well give me 30 minutes and I'll check back in with you on it and have a better idea
[09:57:08 CST(-0600)] <athena> sure, no worries
[09:57:19 CST(-0600)] <athena> and yes, i can totally add that other portlet 
[09:57:49 CST(-0600)] <athena> i'll be gone briefly in like 20 min - have to get the dog a booster shot
[09:57:53 CST(-0600)] <athena> but that should be brief
[09:58:02 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[09:58:19 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah the portlet to help test would be great, that is the easiest thing off the top of my head to split out
[10:04:11 CST(-0600)] <athena> sure
[10:11:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so athena, are we good with the plan that unless a portlet supports DASHBOARD we just don't render it
[10:13:03 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hrm, I having second thoughts about all this ...
[10:13:07 CST(-0600)] <athena> lol
[10:13:12 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> 
[10:13:18 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> we'll get it fixed today
[10:13:22 CST(-0600)] <athena> lol
[10:13:27 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I just want to think through a few other issues ...
[10:13:32 CST(-0600)] <athena> well i can always revert stuff if we want more time
[10:20:36 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok ... so Im remember more now
[10:21:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> we had some logic that initialized portlet windows minimized
[10:21:13 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm thinking that is the wrong place for that logic
[10:23:29 CST(-0600)] <athena> ahh, that sounds familliar now
[10:23:33 CST(-0600)] <athena> ok, i have to run out briefly
[10:23:36 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[10:23:38 CST(-0600)] <athena> but i should be back in 20 min or so
[10:52:37 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> athena: you back?
[10:54:44 CST(-0600)] <athena> yep
[10:54:49 CST(-0600)] <athena> took longer than it should have
[10:55:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so I'm trying to figure out the how to deal with this
[10:55:14 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm going to abandon the dashboard stuff for now
[10:55:21 CST(-0600)] <athena> ok
[10:55:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and just try and figure out the minimized bit
[10:55:32 CST(-0600)] <athena> ok
[10:56:20 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> we have logic in place that is supposed to be minimizing portlet windows on init
[10:56:31 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> if the current structure or theme say to
[10:56:39 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm going to see if I can figure out why that isn't working
[10:56:45 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but I'm also not happy with that solution
[10:57:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I had the thought to do this via a pipeline component
[10:57:19 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> when rendering the mobile view or the json view it would minimize all portlets
[10:57:35 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> unless it was rendering a single portlet (detached state)
[10:57:39 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> does that seem reasonable?
[10:58:03 CST(-0600)] <athena> yes
[10:58:06 CST(-0600)] <athena> at least for a start
[10:58:27 CST(-0600)] <athena> we kind of also need something that can enforce that maximized portlets -> detached when the client is native
[10:58:35 CST(-0600)] <athena> i don't know if that's a related use case at all
[10:58:44 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it could be easily
[10:58:54 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it wouldn't be too hard to have a window state filtering component
[11:04:08 CST(-0600)] <athena> so for today for the base use case, what do we need to do? or should i just go occupy myself with something else for a whiel?
[11:04:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> something else for now, this should be pretty easy ...
[11:04:54 CST(-0600)] <athena> ok
[11:05:05 CST(-0600)] <athena> i in fact have plenty of things to do
[11:05:05 CST(-0600)] <athena> lol
[11:05:47 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist>
[11:11:27 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so we really have a component that needs to enforce a set of rules
[11:11:46 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> man I wish I had time to really dig into this :/
[11:11:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> for the json view
[11:12:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and the mobile browser view
[11:12:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> everything must render in minimized or detached
[11:12:26 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> nothing else is ok
