New Jetspeed Customizer
Hi David,
There use to be a way to add nested layout portlets using the Jetspeed
Customizer. The new version no longer has this feature. Is the nail in the
coffin for this one?
I would like to see an action for adding Folders to the Customizer.
Philip

Thats fine, but I'd prefer that we discuss this with Steve (on the
dev-list), as he is also working on a nested layout solution for the
/desktop customizer.
We have been throwing around the idea of replacing the /portal
customizer with the /desktop customizer, so its a good time to discuss
the direction we want to go in now

I've given this some more thought and I think a discrete dojo widget would
be better for the user. When using nested layouts the screen gets very
cluttered. Therefore I propose dojo content panels instead of the black
rectangles.

Agreed, if the button adds a layout, it should definitely be called "Add
Layout" or "Add Column" and not "Add Portlet"

You right it is only on the simple theme. And the button is labeled 'Add
Portlet'. I propose that we have it on all themes and the button label be
'Add Layout'. Do you agree?

That feature did not change unless it was accidentally broken.
I know it may have problems on certain layouts.
Maybe try it on a simple layout
