The toolbox is an overlaying list of launchable items, such as Favorites or Contacts, which you open and close using a tab on the left side of the mobile framework page. When the user selects an item in the toolbox, it is launched in the content area of the page.

You can display an iView or a page in the toolbox by setting the value of its Mobile Perspective property to Toolbox .

  1. In the portal, navigate to Start of the navigation path Content Administration Next navigation step Portal Content Management End of the navigation path.

  2. In the Portal Catalog, locate your mobile role and from the context menu choose Start of the navigation path Open Next navigation step Role End of the navigation path.

  3. Select the iView or page to display in the toolbox and choose Start of the navigation path Open Next navigation step Properties End of the navigation path.
