Edit Properties

Every asset has associated properties that define its display, availability, and attributes.

Use the Edit Properties dialog to view and edit the properties associated with assets:

Content Directory	The path where dependent objects of the asset, such as images, JavaScripts, style sheets, and HTML files, are stored on the portal server.
JSPx File	The path to the JSF (.jspx) file for the asset.
Page Definition	The path where the page definition XML file of the asset is stored on the portal server. Page definitions are used for page templates, page styles, task flow styles, and task flows.

Attributes	Attributes that determine the behavior of the asset. For example, editPageAfterCreation is a custom attribute of the page style asset and controls whether a newly created page of that style opens in Edit or View mode. It takes a value of true or false. When you associate this attribute with a particular page style, every time a user creates a page based on the selected style, the attribute value is considered and the page behaves accordingly.
