Having problems with message search?
Hi Ania,
You should be able to set modality after
initial creation. However, as currently implemented the modal switch is only
acted upon when the panel/dialog is made visible (this should be fixed, so that
setting modal on an already visible container enables the modality handling –
I’ll look into this for a future release). For your use case it sounds
like the container is never hidden, so the “beforeShow” event is
never fired – which initiates the creation/showing of the mask.
You can probably achieve the same results
by invoking:
panel.buildMask();
panel.bringToTop();
panel.showMask();
After you set modal:true on an already
visible panel.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Satyen

Changing panel's modal attribute
I'm still hoping someone can let me know if this is
possible, changing
the 'modal' property of a panel after it has been created. If that is
not possible, I will try a different tact, but I would like to know
the answer to this approach first.
Thanks much,
Ania.
