Maximising a portlet by default

[John Patrick <jo...@teamcgi.net>]

I'm looking for a way to configure a portlet to be maximised by default
in Jetspeed2 (a request from our portal users). I had a look through the
examples and couldn't see anything but then found that some of the
Jetspeed code (e.g. see the Fragment class) seems to support a 'status'
attribute within a fragment in the psml file. The only value I could get
to work though was 'hidden'. Further study of the Jetspeed code seems to
indicate that only 'hidden' is actually used. Is this correct?
 
Is there a way to configure what I'm after here? If not I'm happy to
look at putting in my own code enhancement but I wanted to check if
there was a simpler solution first.
 
P.S. I'm very new to Jetspeed so although I've done my best to check
things out for myself before posting questions here, please don't be too
harsh if I've missed something obvious :-)
 
Cheers,
John.
