Edit Resource Catalog Item

Use the Edit Resource Catalog Item dialog to edit properties on the selected resource. More

The Edit Resource Catalog Item dialog displays properties that were defined for the resource at design time. Not all properties are exposed at runtime out-of-the-box. However, if you are aware of the properties defined at design time, you can add those properties in this dialog so that they are exposed.

The Edit Resource Catalog Item dialog is arranged in the following tabs:

Target

The Target tab of the Edit Resource Catalog Item dialog enables you to identify the resource that you want to add to the resource catalog. Note that not all elements in listed in this table are available for all resources.

Element	Description
Name	Enter a display name for the resource catalog item.
Description	Enter a brief description of the resource catalog item.
Visible	Select to display the resource catalog item in the resource catalog. Enter `true` or `false`, or click the icon next to a field and select Expression Builder to open the Expression Editor to set a dynamic value using Expression Language (EL).
Path	Enter the URL to access the resource. This field is displayed only for resources of type Link. The URL format is different for the different resources. Prefix the paths to task flows, portlets, and content repositories with `taskflow://`, `portlet://`, and `content://` respectively.
Repository	Enter the name of the connection used to lookup the resource. This field is displayed only for resources that require a repository connection, for example, portlets.
Hide Top-Level Folder	Select to include contents from the selected folder directly under the parent folder; for example, if you select this option for the Data Controls folder, then any data controls created at runtime are displayed directly under Mash-Ups. The Data Controls folder is not displayed. You can preview the catalog to see this change. This field is displayed only for custom folders that are populated dynamically at runtime.
Factory Class	The factory class used to create the folder. This field is displayed only for custom folders that are populated dynamically at runtime. The factory classes for the folders available in the default resource catalog are as follows: Task flow: oracle.webcenter.portalframework.sitestructure.rc.TaskFlowResourceFactory Portlet: oracle.webcenter.portalframework.sitestructure.rc.PortletResourceFactory Content: oracle.webcenter.content.model.rc.ContentUrlResourceFactory

Options

The Options tab of the Edit Resource Catalog Item dialog enables you to specify additional display options for the resource.

Element	Description
attr.ATTRIBUTE_NAME	This field is displayed only for resources that are wrapped in a Show Detail Frame or Movable Box component. These attributes are used to set an initial value for the enclosing Show Detail Frame or Movable Box component's attributes; for example, `attr.text` defines the default title for the resource and `attr.contentStyle` defines the CSS style to apply for the resource. These are attributes that were explicitly defined on the resource at design time.
parameter.PARAMETER_NAME	This field is displayed only for resources that are wrapped in a Show Detail Frame or Movable Box component.

These are attributes that were explicitly defined on the resource at design time.
