Is there standard HTML classes for use when wanting a custom widget to produce a dialog

Richard.T.241

We would like to utilise a popup/dialog within a custom widget and rather than importing external styles/libraries. we would like to utilise the system standard ones so our widget follows the system and future upgrades.

Is there any documention on what the standard dialog HTML classes are and can they be provided?

Hi @Richard.Tomlinson9866

Currently our HTML Templates do not include standardized dialog examples, however the Custom Welcome Widget, available through the Custom Wisdget Expansion pack, does include a pop-up option.

HI @Richard.Tomlinson9866
The only public facing documentation of this type that I'm aware of currently woudl by our HTML Templates that are available for free download from this article

https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/1304-html-template-version-3-0

Note: This pack doesn't include a modal/pop-up window but does leverage a bootstrap library, so may be handy in thinking about an approach.

There's another cool resource you might find handy if you want to take the approach of using an HTML Tempalte to create a custom widget, that I'd recommend called

Hope this offers a path forward
