[mapguide-users] Popup variable in AJAX viewer Pages

[Alain Lebatard]

Buffer runs in the task pane by default, but you can change this with
MapGuide Studio. You can use the web layout editor of Studio to
determine in what frame (floating or not) your command should run.

But buffer always runs in the left Pain?????

What I was hoping was that it floated the task pain for certain
commands...etc.

I.e. How do I get the default buffer tool to be a popup instead...

The POPUP parameter tells the target command if it is running in an
embedded frame - such as the task pane - or in a popup window. It's
useful when the page needs to access the main frame, because the way to
reference the main frame from the page will change depending on whether
it runs in a popup or not. If your page does not need to access the main
frame, it has no use for the POPUP parameter.

 

There are several commands where the POPUP parameter is used, and you
can find example of this in the buffer command. The buffer page needs to
access the main frame to get the current list of layers. BufferUI.php
uses the value of the POPUP parameter to initialize the variable 'popup'
in the Javascript code for this page (see BufferUi.templ). The function
GetParent() of that script uses 'popup' to reference the main frame
accordingly.

What does the popup parameter in all of the viewerAPI pages do...I set
it to 1 and Nothing seems to change???????
