- ### Items

  - #### identifier

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    GUI feature identifier. E.g. idetifier for view or widget. The feature specifications that come from different roles will be merged if they have the same identifier. The identifier is also used for diagnostics, e.g. used in the logfiles.

    Although identifier type is defined as string, it is strongly recommended to use URI for all customizations. The URI should be based on identifier that you own (e.g. DNS domain). Using non-URI forms may still work, but there is risk of conflicting with default midPoint configuration.

    If no identifer is specified for a view then midPoint will internally generate a value for the identifier. This internal identifier value is based on the GUI feature definition, e.g. object type and/or collection OID or other aspects of the view. The algorithm for identifier generation may change and the results are not guaranteed to be completely unique. Therefore it is strongly recommended to explictly set identifier for all the UI features in any non-trivial midPoint configuration.

    Identifier may not be needed at all in some cases (e.g. additionalPanels in views).

  - #### description

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Free-form description (comment) intended for system administrator. Description will NOT be displayed as any part of the UI feature. The purpose is to explain the purpose or configuration details.

  - #### documentation

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Technical documentation for a particular object or construct.

    The purpose of this element is to document system configuration and behavior. The documentation will not be presented to end users. In fact, it will probably not be presented at all in midPoint user interface. This documentation element is supposed to be a part of the technical documentation of midPoint deployment. The tools than generate deployment configuration will look for these elements and combine them to compiled documentation document.

    AsciiDoc formatting is assumed for this element. Any leading or trailing whitespace is skipped. Indentation equivalent to he indentation of the first non-blank line of text is also skipped.

  - #### display

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Display properties of the UI feature. It is used to display the link in the menu and so on. Only some parts of display specification may be used. E.g. for views only label is used now. E.g. the CSS properties are ignored.

  - #### visibility

    Flags: RAM,runtime,AVals:4

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Defines, whether this feature will be visible or it will be hidden.

    The default (since 4.0) is 'automatic', which means that all defined features will be visible if possible, unless explicitly hidden. However, this can be changed, e.g. by setting default visibility in the dashboard definition. Also, some hardcoded dashboards have different defaults. E.g. the legacy 3.x end-user home page has default visibility of "vacant".

  - #### displayOrder

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    The content of this property specifies an order in which the user interface feature should be displayed relative to other similar features that are displayed together. E.g. this may be used to order views in the menu, widgets on the dashboard and so on. These items that do not have any displayOrder definition will be displayed last. Items with the same displayOrder are displayed in alphabetic order.

  - #### applicableForOperation

    Flags: RAM,runtime,AVals:2

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Used to distinguish for which operations are the configuration applicable (and so visible) If nothing specified, configuration will be applicable for both add and modify operations. When there is a need to restrict configuration applicability (and thus visibility) only for e.g. modify object operation, applicableForOperation should be set to 'modify'.

    Applicable for panel (ContainerPanelConfigurationType) configuration and objectCollectionView configuration.

    EXPERIMENTAl. Might change in future releases.

  - #### container

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,-1]

    List of containers to show on this panel

  - #### panelType

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Unique identifier used to reference panel to create. E.g. SingelContainerPanel, etc

  - #### listView

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Specification of an explicit or implicit object collection that will be used to select objects in this view. If no collection is specified then it is assumed that all objects of a particular type has to be displayed (type element above is mandatory in that case).

  - #### path

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Panel class identifying panel to create. E.g. SingelContainerPanel, etc

  - #### type

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Panel class identifying panel to create. E.g. SingelContainerPanel, etc

  - #### panel

    Flags: elaborate,RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,-1]

    Sub panel

  - #### default

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    If the panel is default.

  - #### preview

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    If the panel should be shown in preview mode.

  - #### action

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,-1]

    List of actions for this panel. Actions are special things that can be done with particular object or list of objects. Action can also specify a target place (page/panel/url) to redirect from this panel.
