Creating Pop-Up Controls

For a DOCUMENT object, you can use pop-up controls to:

• Create modern looking controls that will run seamlessly on any device.
• Create controls that look the same, but offer different functionality based on single or multiple value selection.

To create pop-up controls, you can:

• Set the Create popup controls property on the Properties panel for the DOCUMENT object.
• Use the Popup style right-click shortcut option, which allows a control to be an original or a pop-up style control. (Disabled for Edit Box, Text Area, Calendar, and Slider).
• Use the New Parameters dialog box. This is available as:
  • An item in the Parameters grid as a check box (Popup).
  • A check box to select all parameters in the grid to be a Popup Control (Create popup controls).
