About Modifying the Contents List Location

You can manage the display of the contents list in the Application UI Definition file or a Pageset UI Definition file.

In the Application Definition File

If you use the Application UI Definition file to define where the contents list appears, the contents list display becomes part of the application UI. It appears in a static frame throughout the application, regardless of which pageset is active (see Figure 13-1). Use the RegisterContentsListFrame function to indicate which application frame the contents list loads into.

In a Pageset UI Definition File

If you use a Pageset UI Definition file to define where the contents list appears, the contents list display becomes part of the UI definition of an individual pageset. Whether it appears depends on which pageset is active. Use the SetContentsListFrame function inside a Pageset UI Definition file to have the contents list appear and disappear based on which pageset your users are interacting with (see Figure 13-2).
