ASPxPopupControl.Modal Property
Specifies whether the default popup window is modal.
Namespace: DevExpress.Web
Assembly: DevExpress.Web.v23.2.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Web
Declaration
Property Value
| Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Boolean | false |
|
Remarks
A modal pop-up window retains input focus while open. A user cannot switch windows until the pop-up window is closed.
When the Modal property is set to true, make sure that the CloseAction property is set to the CloseButton value to prevent the pop-up window from being closed by clicking the mouse mouse outside the window (the default closing action).
When adaptive mode is enabled, the Modal property is not in effect and the window is displayed in modal mode.
Example
This example demonstrates how nested popup windows can be displayed using the ASPxPopupControl.
function KeyHandler(e) {
if (e.keyCode == 27)
if (window2.IsVisible())
window2.Hide();
else if (window1.IsVisible())
window1.Hide();
else
return false;
return true;
}
