Angular Popup Properties

An object defining configuration options for the Popup widget.

accessKey

Specifies the shortcut key that sets focus on the widget.

Type:

String

Default Value: null

The value of this option will be passed to the accesskey attribute of the HTML element that underlies the widget.

animation

Configures widget visibility animations. This object contains two fields: show and hide.

Type:

Object

Default Value: { show: { type: 'slide', duration: 400, from: { position: { my: 'top', at: 'bottom', of: window } }, to: { position: { my: 'center', at: 'center', of: window } } }, hide: { type: 'slide', duration: 400, from: { position: { my: 'center', at: 'center', of: window } }, to: { position: { my: 'top', at: 'bottom', of: window } } }} (iOS)

Use the position option to specify the position in which the widget is shown and from which it is hidden.

Set the animation object to null or undefined to disable animation.

closeOnBackButton

A Boolean value specifying whether or not the widget is closed if a user presses the Back hardware button.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true

closeOnOutsideClick

Specifies whether to close the widget if a user clicks outside it.

|

Function

Function parameters:
event:

Event (jQuery or EventObject)

The event that caused widget closing. It is a dxEvent or a jQuery.Event when you use jQuery.

Return Value:

Boolean

true if the widget should be closed; otherwise false.

Default Value: false

The function passed to this option enables you to specify a custom condition for widget closing. For instance, you can prevent closing until a user clicks a certain element.

JavaScript
var widgetOptions = {
    // ...
    closeOnOutsideClick: function(e) {
        return e.target === $("#someElement").get()[0];
    }
}

container

Specifies the container in which to place the widget.

Type:

String

|

DOM Node

|

jQuery

Default Value: undefined

The default container is defined during the widget's initialization. It is the viewport, or the body element if the viewport is not found, or the parent element if the previous two are absent.

The specified container affects some features of the Popup: the area to be shaded, behavior on scrolling, etc.

contentTemplate

Specifies a custom template for the widget content.

Type:

template

Template Data: undefined
Default Name: 'content'

deferRendering

Specifies whether to render the widget's content when it is displayed. If false, the content is rendered immediately.

dragEnabled

Specifies whether or not to allow a user to drag the popup window.

Dragging is possible only if the "height: 100%" style setting is applied to the html element and "min-height: 100%" - to the body element.
HTML
<html style="height: 100%;">
