How to change size and appearance of new opened window in MapGuide viewer?

By Daniel Du

In MapGuide Ajax viewer, I can open a new window if I specify the value for “Display result in this target interface” to “New window” or “Specified frame” in Web layout editor, but it always opens a 500*500 window without toolbar. How can I resize the window or change its appearance when it is opened?

The solution is simple. It can be edited in <WebExetension Installation folder>wwwviewerfilesajaxmappane.templ

For AIMS2012:  C:Program FilesAutodeskAutodesk Infrastructure Web Server Extension 2012wwwviewerfilesajaxmappane.templ

For MapGuide 2011: C:Program FilesAutodeskMapGuideEnterprise2011WebServerExtensionswwwviewerfilesajaxmappane.templ, etc.

Edit the source code at about line 3785:

//the code can be modified here,
//if necessary, to control the size and appearance of the
//new window. e.g. 
window.open(url, targetFrame,
"toolbar=no,width=500,height=500,resizable,scrollbars");
//window.open(linkURL, targetFrame);
