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.
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 (in the format (x,y,w,h)) |
| $floating | New in: 5.2.0 Optional. Defaults to no. Set to yes to create a popup that must be closed explicitly. |
New in: 5.1.23 If the $coords attribute is missing or empty then all popups are cancelled.
