Popup window - Non modal

Hi,
I have created a popup window. How to make it non modal?
my code goes like this.....
IWDWindowInfo windowInfo =(IWDWindowInfo) wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows("Popup");
     IWDWindow     window = wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getWindowManager().createWindow(windowInfo, true);
     wdContext.currentContextElement().setWindowInstance(window);
     window.setWindowPosition(WDWindowPos.CENTER);
     window.open();
Pls help

Hi Sujesh,
As far as I know this functinality hasn't been implemented atleast till SP9. Though you have a boolean variable for specifying whether the window created is modal or not, it will always create a <b>modal</b> window.

ADF Faces: non-modal popup windows

Hi,
when using the dialog functionality on commandXXX components the dialog always opens in a modal mode. My requirements are to let the user open as many popups as someone likes from the same page.
Is it possible to achieve this behaviour without manual "javascript hackery"?
Any hints are greatly appriciated.
Regards,
Andreas.

Hi all,
I still have the requirement to open a popup in non-modal mode. Has anyone an example how to do that? The actionListener method on my command button has to be executed of course...
Thanks in advance,

Darken Modal/PopUp Window??

Hi,
In Flex there is the concept of modal popup windows or modal
dialogs, whatever you want to call them. Is there a way to control
the color of the window? So to be clearer, when you pop up a window
using the PopUpManager Class and set the modal property to "true"
it creates this dimmed affect in the background. I want to make
this darker than the default. How can I do this?
Thanks,

Showing non-modal popup in overlay of browser.xul - on Windows

Hi. I've got a custom Firefox add-on in plain Javascript. It to overlays Firefox's browser.xul (via chrome.manifest) by an XUL file, where I would like to show a non-modal popup (or some kind of non-intrusive notification).
I've tried following three options from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Code_snippets/Alerts_and_Notifications:
1.
Components.classes['@mozilla.org/alerts-service;1'].
getService(Components.interfaces.nsIAlertsService).
showAlertNotification(null, 'Some title', 'Some message', false, '', null);
2.
var win = Components.classes['@mozilla.org/embedcomp/window-watcher;1'].
getService(Components.interfaces.nsIWindowWatcher).
openWindow(null, 'chrome://global/content/alerts/alert.xul',
'_blank', 'chrome,titlebar=no,popup=yes', null);
win.arguments = [null, 'Some title', 'Some message', false, ''];
3.
var message = 'Another pop-up blocked';
var nb = gBrowser.getNotificationBox();
var n = nb.getNotificationWithValue('popup-blocked');
if(n) {
n.label = message;
} else {
var buttons = [{
label: 'Button',
accessKey: 'B',
popup: 'blockedPopupOptions',
callback: null
Neither of them works on Windows. The first two work on Linux (Fedora 20 x64). Neither of them generates any error either.
Please, suggest how/where to do that, or how to 'schedule it' (as an even handler to a system event, I suppose) from my overlay of browser.xul.

I think you would have a better chance of getting comments from experienced add-on developers on one of these sites:

Hi,
I have the requirement that I need to open the account factsheet in a new window. For that I have created a popup which works fine but I need this popup to be non-modal.
Is there any way to do this? Or is there any other solution to open the factsheet in a separate window?
Thanks for your help and best regards,

Non Modal Window Popup BSP View

Hi,
I have a requirement to launch a pop up window which will allow the user to access the original screen from which the pop up was launched (i.e. a non modal window). The pop up window contains a calculator with the intention being that the user would be able to view and copy data displayed on the original screen into the fields of the calculator.
I have created the calculator as a form view within a BSP component. All of the fields on the form view have been configured using the configuration tab. I have successfully created a modal pop up using the following on the buttons click event:
comp_controller->window_manager->create_popup( ).
However, this does not meet my requirement because the form view is displayed in a modal window. I have also attempted to load the pop up using javascript however the view does not initialise correctly when it is loaded which causes a null reference error.
Can anyone please provide any advice or assistance related to creating a non-modal window for a configured form view within a BSP component? Many of the examples I have found online are related to WebDynPro applications and html pages with flow logic rather than configured views with a controller class.
Thank you.

Non-Modal Popup in WebDynpro 4 ABAP?

Hey,
i tried to create a non-modal popup but by opening the popup the following error is raised:

why are you using the factory method, instead you can use the

Regarding TreeItemType and Non Modal window in WDA

Hello Guys,
I am showing data in tree format in WDA and handling onAction event of TreeItemType. whenever user is clicking the last node in hierarchy (UI element TreeItemType), I am navigating to detailed view.
the problem I am facing is that user is expanding the tree and selecting the child node to navigate to detailed view and now when he comes back to initial view, entire tree gets collapsed. and this leads user to again expand the tree.
Is anyone have idea on this problem. I wanted my first view to be same after user navigates to 2nd view and comes back to 1st one.
apart from this I have below question,
1) In WDA, we cannot have non-modal window. Correct?
2) If we call external window within WDA then the same application will not work in portal environment (WDA iView). Please let me know if this is correct?
Thanks,
Chandra

Hallo Chandra,
What you do when the control returns from view-2 to view-1 ? . Tree is not collapsing itself i suppose. Some how ,Contexts are being manipulated or node is invalidated forcing supply function to call.
You could save the lead selected item before you navigate to view-2. When you come back again position the correct item.
> 1) In WDA, we cannot have non-modal window. Correct?
In what context you mean ? you can have external_window or link_to_url.
If you mean popup then it is not possible to have non-modal.
> 2) If we call external window within WDA then the same application will not work in portal environment (WDA iView). Please let me know if this is correct?
This is correct.

TIP: Building Modal Popup Windows

Build Modal Popup Pages
Introduction
The following is based on the 'How To Document' - 'Build Custom Popup Pages'.
This How To will show the developer how to create Modal Popup windows with the ability to pass information back to the parent window.
Example Scenario
The example described in this how to adds a custom modal popup LOV to a form on the SCOTT.EMP table. Clicking the popup LOV link on the form page will popup a Modal LOV page that allows users to search by ENAME, JOB, and SAL. Selecting a value from this LOV page will close that popup LOV page and populate the ENAME, JOB, and SAL fields on the form page with the selected values. Additionally, had the user entered some data into the ENAME, JOB, and/or SAL fields on the form page, that data would be used in the initial search when the popup LOV page is first shown.
Step 1 - Create a simple form page on SCOTT.EMP
To create the form page, simply step through the HTML DB "Form on a Table or View" wizard against the EMP table accepting the defaults. For this example, create the form with a page number of one, and make sure to allow the ename, job, and sal fields to be editable. When the wizard completes, page 1 of the application should have the items P1_ENAME, P1_JOB, and P1_SAL on it as text fields.
Step 2 - Create a popup page with search fields
Next, create a page that's to be used as the popup window: Page 2. Ultimately, this page will have javascript, a report region, and some buttons. For now, though, just create a page 2 with the items P2_ENAME, P2_JOB, and P2_SAL on it as text fields.
Step 3 - Set Modal popup page header requirements
A) Modal windows by default cache the information they display. When creating a popup window which displays different information each time it is called or to allow searching the caching default must be switched off.
Add the following meta-tag to the "HTML Header" field of the page-level attributes screen for page 2 to accomplish this:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
B) Modal windows by default open a new window when running any redirect calls. When creating a modal popup which passes back parameters to the parent window. The modal window has to be forced to fire redirect calls within its own window rather than open a new window for the redirect.
Add the following tag to the "HTML Header" field of the page-level attributes screen for page 2 to accomplish this:
<base target="_self">
Step 4 - Add Javascript call to the popup page
Because the popup page should filter its result set based on any values that the user might have entered onto the form page, you need to add a javascript function that would pass those values off. Add the following function to the "HTML Header" field of the page-level attributes screen for page 1 to accomplish this:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function callMyPopup (formItem1,formItem2,formItem3) {
    var formVal1 = document.getElementById(formItem1).value;
    var formVal2 = document.getElementById(formItem2).value;
    var formVal3 = document.getElementById(formItem3).value;
    var url;
url = 'f?p=&APP_ID.:2:&APP_SESSION.::::P2_ENAME,P2_JOB,P2_SAL:' + formVal1 + ',' + formVal2 + ',' + formVal3 ;
// IE Browsers modal popup window
if (window.showModalDialog) {
    w = showModalDialog(url, window.self,"status:0; scroll:1; resizable:1; dialogWidth:25; dialogHeight:43");
    // w is an array returned from the modal popup containing the passback values
    if (w) {
      document.getElementById("P1_ENAME").value = w[0];
      document.getElementById("P1_JOB").value = w[1];
      document.getElementById("P1_SAL").value = w[2];
      document.getElementById("P1_SAL").focus();
else {
// mozilla based browsers modal popup window
w = open(url,"winLov","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=800,height=600", modal="yes");
if (w.opener == null)
    w.opener = self;
w.focus();
</script>Though you don't need to know how to read javascript for this example, it helps to understand that this function only does one important thing: it opens a modal popup window of page two in our application while passing values to P2_ENAME, P2_JOB, and P2_SAL. It gathers those values to pass from the names of the HTML DB items provided to it. The call to this function will be added in the next step below.
Step 5 - Add a popup link next to the P1_SAL field on the form page
Add a link to the form page that will call the callMyPopup function above and pass it the values it needs. To do so, place the following HTML in the "Post Element Text" field attribute of the P1_SAL item:
<~a href="javascript:callMyPopup('P1_ENAME','P1_JOB','P1_SAL');">Click for LOV<~/a>NB. remove ~ from above when deploying
Step 6 - Add the LOV report to the popup page
The next step is to create a report on the popup page based on the values passed from the form on page one. The tricky part of this report is providing a means for the selected values to be passed back to the form page. This can be achieved by having a column of the report render as a javascript link that would close the popup window and pass the ename, job and sal values for that row back. Start by adding a simple report region to our Modal popup page that uses a query such as:
      select ename, job, sal , 'placeholder' the_link
        from emp
       where ename like '%'||:P2_ENAME||'%'
         and (job = :P2_JOB or :P2_JOB is null)
         and (sal = :P2_SAL or :P2_SAL is null)Note that the last column in this query is just a placeholder. once the region is created, turn that placeholder into a link by doing the following:
Navigate to the Page Definition for page 2
Next to the name of the report region created in step 6, Click Q
Next to the column THE_LINK, click the edit icon
In the "Link Text" field enter the string "select"
In the URL field enter: javascript:passBack('#ENAME#','#JOB#','#SAL#'); Click the "Apply Changes" button
Step 7 - Add the javascript function to the Modal popup page to pass selected values to the (parent) form page.
In the previous step you added a call to a javascript function, passBack. Now add that function to the top of Modal popup page 2. In the same manner as step 4 above, add that passBack function to the page 2 by putting it in the "HTML Header" field of the page-level attributes screen. The function should look similar to the following:
<script language="JavaScript">
   function passBack(passVal1, passVal2, passVal3)
     // IE Browser return the passback values in an array
     if (window.showModalDialog) {
       var retVal = new Array(passVal1, passVal2, passVal3);
       window.returnValue = retVal;
       window.close();
     // Mozilla based browsers right the passback values directly into the parent window
     else {
       opener.document.getElementById("P1_ENAME").value = passVal1;
       opener.document.getElementById("P1_JOB").value = passVal2;
       opener.document.getElementById("P1_SAL").value = passVal3;
       opener.document.getElementById("P1_SAL").focus();
       close();
</script>This function simply sets the values of P1_ENAME, P1_JOB, and P1_SAL with the values of the whatever's stored to the three HTML DB item names passed to it. It also closes the current window and puts the cursor back into the P1_SAL field.
Step 8 - Polishing
The basic functionality of this custom modal popup window has been created in steps 1 though 7. To make its usage a little more friendly, it's advisable to add Cancel and Search buttons to the popup window page. The Search button should just be added as a regular button that branches back to the page 2. Adding this button allows users to re-query for LOV options without having to return to our form page. The Cancel button should be created with an "Action" of "Redirect to URL". The "URL Target" of the button should be javascript:window.close(). As the code suggests, the Cancel button would just close the popup window (with no values returned).
Hope this is of use....

Everything said above is working fine but in Mozilla small popup is coming in top left corner of browser..

1. Non-modal popup or 2.minimize button on titlebar of popup

Hi All,
Firstly, is it now possible to open non-modal pop-ups ( as many pop-ups after executing an action method :( ) , or has anyone come across this found a work-around for this ?
currently, I am opening a modal dialog itself. But when I click the minimize ( since minimize, maximize and close buttons are activated in the title bar ), the popup minimizes and maximises immediately. This is now raised as a bug and I need to find a solution for this.
Would much appreciate help,comments or views on this ?

In your case, you can set it to live.

Modal popup window refresh the parent (calling) window/view

I have a modal popup window that is adding detail records. When this window is closed via the Hide method in my controller I would like to refresh the parent (calling) window/view.
What is the best way to do this?
Regards,
Diane

Here's my process.....
2-windows & 3 views
Window 1 - Selection View and Detail View
Window 2 - Add View (used as a modal popup window called by a button click on the detail view)
Selection View has all the options for obtaining a list of data for the detail view. The detail view has an Add button. Component controller has the hide method and access to the other components that do the update/query methods. On the detail view the user can click Add and a popup modal window shows. User enters data and clicks either the add or cancel button. The Detail view needs to refresh to show the additional data that has been added by the modal window. There are calcuated values in the detail view from a supply function. This function is not running and the values are not changed.
What should be put in the hide method that will cause the detail view to obtain new data and supply the calculated values? If I was using the Add view as part of the same window as the detail/selection views I'd just put in a navigation link between the detail and add views and fire the plug. I like the idea of the popup window so I'd like to get this to work.
I put the wdContext.initialize() in the hide method - which yes - caused the detail view to run - however the context lost all the key values so I received a data not found. I then tried to initialize those nodes that did not contain the key values but the detail view did not display new values.
Thanks for any ideas.....Diane

Printing Non Modal External Window - print out additional blank page

Hi All,
I am printing out a content of a web dynpro view as a non modal external window with the browser print functionality.
Even if the content of the web dynpro view is not more than the half of a page the browser print functionality prints 2 pages. The second page is a blank page.
I tried to change the external window size in web dynpro, but it is still printing 2 pages.
How can I set / configure the browser print functionality, so it prints only the page that contains the web dynpro view content?
Thanks,
Yasar

Hi,
I'm guessing the concurrent program is outputting text (character mode) as opposed to PDF?
This could be a number of reasons:
1. Printer driver issue, e.g. the number of lines printed on the page is more than is defined for the printer driver: Try reducing the "Rows" on the current program definition
2. Printer PRT issue, extra page break could be being inserted.
3. The "box" in the report definition containing the address could be being expanding due to the extra address line, but not enough space so it forces a new page to be printed.

Modal Popup Window Hides Help Popup Window

Hello Everybody,
today I stepped upon an issue regarding popup windows.
I have created an application with popup windows for editing and inserting new records.
I left the item label templates to "Optional with Help".
When I now click upon an item label the help - popup window appears but it is hidden behind the popup window I am working in.
Is there a workaround for that.
Is there a possibility to modify the z-order either of the help popup or of the modal window ?
Any advice is appreciated.
Regards
Marc

There are lot of options to customize the behavior of jQuery dialog. You can set height as auto, however you need to specify some fixed width depending on the content.
$( "#TEST_POPUP" ).dialog({ height: "auto", width:500 });Default for height is auto, so you may not need to specify it.
See http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Dialog for more info.

Hari

base target=_self issue in modal popup window.

Hi,
I have implemented a modal popup window as described in:
TIP: Building Modal Popup Windows
I also created a Search button (per step 8 "polishing")
The html header of the page attributes of the LOV window contains (step 3):
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<base target=_self>
Still for some reason when I hit Search, a new window opens.
What am I missing here?
Toon

Andy,
I added the quotes: but no difference in behaviour.
However I did find something:
On the search button I had erroneously defined a url-redirect going back to the same page.
And I also had a conditional (request=search) branch going back to the same page.
I deleted the url redirect on the search button, and it works fine now: the branch takes me back to the same window (without opening a new one).
On further testing I found another issue concerning the pagination (it is of type: row ranges in select list with pagination).
If I press next and previous all works well. But if I select a range from the select list it opens a new window...
Any ideas here?
Thanks,
Toon
