Introduction
The action-popup widget is an action widget that triggers the display of a popup defined via a state tiddler, or clears all displayed popups. ActionWidgets are used within triggering widgets such as the ButtonWidget.
Content and Attributes
The action-popup widget is invisible. Any content within it is ignored.
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| $state | The title of the state tiddler for the popup |
| $coords | Optional coordinates for the handle to which popup is positioned (see Coordinate Systems for the supported formats) |
| $floating | Introduced in v5.2.0 Optional. Defaults to no. Set to yes to create a popup that must be closed explicitly. |
Introduced in v5.1.23 If the $coords attribute is missing or empty then all popups are cancelled.
Introduced in v5.2.4 The $coords attribute supports absolute and relative coordinates. See Coordinate Systems for more information.
Examples

<$button>
<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/state/tab/sidebar--595412856" $value="$:/core/ui/SideBar/Tools"/>
<$action-popup $state="$:/state/popup/more--810643385" $coords="(0,20,0,0)"/>
Click me!
</$button>That renders as:
