Warning

This article is under construction! Please DO NOT use any of the instructions below, yet! You may cause damage to your system. This article will be finished soon.

Portals are used to define start or overview pages. A portal can have multiple columns with multiple widgets. Every portal can be restricted to a role. You can use different widgets here: SQL Querys, Links and Reports.

Column

Property	Description	Example
Border top	Property that defines the vertical top-margin of the column.	25
Border right	Property that defines the horizontal right-margin of the column.	25
Border bottom	Property that defines the vertical bottom-margin of the column.	25
Border left	Property that defines the horizontal left-margin of the column.	25

Note

Do not let your widget XML-definition start with a blank space! This is a common error - the widget will not function properly.
