Optional acceleratorOptional apiConfigurations for API injection.
Optional autoOptional autoplayAutoplay policy to apply to content in the window, can be
no-user-gesture-required, user-gesture-required,
document-user-activation-required. Defaults to no-user-gesture-required.
Optional backgroundThe view’s backfill color as a hexadecimal value. Not to be confused with the content background color
(document.body.style.backgroundColor),
this color briefly fills a view’s (a) content area before its content is loaded as well as (b) newly exposed
areas when growing a view. Setting
this value to the anticipated content background color can help improve user experience.
Default is white.
Optional boundsInitial bounds given relative to the window.
Optional closePlatforms Only.
Determines what happens when a view is closed in a platform window.
Supersedes the deprecated detachOnClose.
If not set, detaults to destroy if detachOnClose is false (default), or detach if detachOnClose is true.
While this option is not updateable, it may change at runtime if detachOnClose is updated.
'hide' hides the view on the platform window that closed it.
'detach' behaves like 'detachOnClose': true. It attaches the closed view to the platform provider.
'destroy' is the default behavior as long as 'detachOnClose' is not set. It destroys the view.
Optional contentConfigures how new content (e,g, from window.open or a link) is opened.
Optional contentRestrict navigation to URLs that match an allowed pattern. In the lack of an allowlist, navigation to URLs that match a denylisted pattern would be prohibited. See here for more details.
Optional contentOptional contextSuperseded by contextMenuOptions, which offers a larger feature-set and cleaner syntax.

Optional contextConfigure the context menu when right-clicking on a window.
Optional contextSuperseded by contextMenuOptions, which offers a larger feature-set and cleaner syntax.
Configure the context menu when right-clicking on a window.
Optional customA field that the user can use to attach serializable data that will be saved when Platform.getSnapshot is called. If a window in a Platform is trying to update or retrieve its own context, it can use the Platform.setWindowContext and Platform.getWindowContext calls. When omitted, inherits from the parent application. As opposed to customData, this is meant for frequent updates and sharing with other contexts. For usage example, see customContext Example.
Optional customA field that the user can attach serializable data to be ferried around with the window options. When omitted, inherits from the parent application.
Optional customCustom headers for requests sent by the view.
Optional detachfalse
Platforms Only. If true, will hide and detach the View from the window for later use instead of closing, allowing the state of the View to be saved and the View to be immediately shown in a new Layout.
Optional downloadControls interaction of the view with its parent window's download shelf.
Whether downloads in this view trigger opening the download shelf on its parent BrowserWindow.
If enabled: true, downloads from this view will cause the download shelf to display
on the parent window even if that parent window's DownloadShelfOptions specify
enabled: false.
Optional enablefalse
When set to true, any beforeunload handler set on Views will fire.
Optional experimentalOptional fdc3Optional hotkeysDefines the hotkeys that will be emitted as a hotkey event on the view. For usage example, see hotkeys Example.
Within Platform, OpenFin also implements a set of pre-defined actions called
keyboard commands
that can be assigned to a specific hotkey in the platform manifest.
Optional interopOptional istrue
Platforms Only. If false, the view will be persistent and can't be closed through
either UI or Platform.closeView. Note that the view will still be closed if the host window is closed or
if the view isn't part of the new layout when running Layout.replace.
Optional manifestPlatforms Only. Url to a manifest that contains View Options. Properties other than manifestUrl can still be used but the properties in the manifest will take precedence if there is any collision.
Optional nameThe name of the view.
Optional permissionsOptional preloadScripts that run before page load. When omitted, inherits from the parent application.
Optional preventfalse
Platforms Only. If true, the tab of the view can't be dragged out of its host window.

Optional targetThe identity of the window this view should be attached to.
Optional url"about:blank"
