Page Titles should be able to utilize the new Page Parameter options to define a dynamic title

5

Now that Mendix has more robust support for Page Parameters, we should be able to configure a dynamic page title within the page itself.

 

While one can configure a dynamic page title within a page's settings, this can create inconsistencies in the UI when the page has a URL defined. It also requires someone to maintain this configuration at the callsite which is not really maintainable.

 

In the name of accessibility, we should also be able to define Page Titles that are not prefixed with the application name.

Very good idea, would love to see dynamic page titles.

Especially useful for popups because currently we need to close and reopen popups when the displayed object changes, which takes quite long. Only other solution is to put a title on the page itself which can be dynamic, but this looks weird in popups since the page then has 2 titles.

Yes, I agree. Mendix's expanded support for page options gives you the ability to customize a dynamic page title within the page itself. This improves the user experience and makes the application more flexible. It is also important to consider accessibility and allow page titles to be defined without the application name prefix.
