Add Modality To Window

Please support out of the box support for modality. I know there is how to, but out of the box, for such basic feature seems reasonable.

Also suggested how to doesn't work for windows initialised through service.

This would also align Angular Window component with KendoUI Window component modality.

Why can you not implement this feature request or the one to add draggable and resizable to the Dialog?  You declined both.  We would like to have a dialog that is draggable and resizable like the Window component but have it be a Modal like the dialog.  Any solution for this?

Hi,

Unlike the Dialog component, which renders an additional wrapper for modality, the Window does not support modality by design. We decided that leaving the Window modality implementation in the hands of the developer is more suitable and straightforward than providing it as a built-in functionality. Please refer to the following KB article on how this could be achieved:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/knowledge-base/add-modality-to-window/ 

We will also extend the mentioned article so that it demonstrates the already discussed approach for adding modality to a Window opened through service.

Regards,
Slavena

Hi Matjaž,

You can observe Modal Window opened through service on this stackblitz sample, please also refer to this page of our docs ( second example ).

We admit that it would be better to have Modal Window out of the box, but we are not sure when it can be available, though we have plenty of items in our roadmap.
