parent Vs Popup

[Former Member]

Hi,

If we open popup window from parent, we can't operate parent window until we close popup.

Is it true.

I can't operate my parent window until i close popup.

Thanks,

Damodhar.

Yes, popup windows are modal.

Hi Damodhar.

You could also put the clickable part of the parent window in a separate iView. And then use portal eventing to update the modal dialog.

Could that solve your problem?

This is what i suggest the ui design team, but they need as something like newwindow and can be refreshable if user clicks on parent window.

I suggested new browser window too.

Thanks,

HI,

I want to show like small window with table data, if the user clicks something else on the parent screen(with popup open) it must refresh with new data.

I hope this gives you bettter understanding.

Thanks,

Damodhar.

Couldn't you embed this detail view inside the parent?

You could place a ViewContainerUIElement inside the parent that is bound to the detail view and use the "visible" property of the ViewContainerUIElement to toggle its visibility.

What's the purpose of the popup? Perhaps you could embed the popup content at a suitable position inside the parent and toggle its visibility (can be done via data binding).
