Hi Glarenzie

I would be very interested in seeing your solution as I am trying to achieve the same thing.

I am a JBoss portal newbie so I did not want to create my own layout on my first attempt.  

Instead I modified the generic layout in portal-core.war/WEB-INF/portal-layouts.xml to include a uri state mapping to my custom layout jsp print.jsp.

  |   <layout>
  |       <name>generic</name>
  |       <uri>/layouts/generic/index.jsp</uri>
  |       <uri state="maximized">/layouts/generic/maximized.jsp</uri>
  |       <uri state="print">/layouts/generic/print.jsp</uri>
  |       <regions>
  |          <region name="left"/>
  |          <region name="center"/>
  |       </regions>
  |    </layout>
  | 

I then also modified portal-core.war/WEB-INF/portlet.xml to include a custom window state called print as follows:
  

  | <custom-window-state>
  |    	<description>print view</description>
  | 	<window-state>print</window-state>
  |    </custom-window-state>
  | 

In my own portlet, when I switch the window state to print (via processAction) the layout is not mapped to print.jsp but to index.jsp.  I'm clearly missing a step.

My new window state is being registered as when I obtain the PortalContext from the ActionRequest and then iterate over the supported window states, my custom state is included.  I can't seem to map the layout to print.jsp however.

Help would be appreciated!

Regards

Allan
