Create subview in UI Editor

robinsiebler112

Is it possible to create subviews in the UI Editor? If so, a) how and b) how would I name them? I basically want to create several "pop-up dialogs" to use in my app.

Thanks!

Create each sub view as it's own workflow and use the "Subworkflow" action to launch them on the press of a button.

Or you could make each menu as it's own Custom UI action, save them as a preset, and run that action by the press of a button (make sure they are popover UIs).

The only thing that isn't straightforward is the positioning of the pop-up dialog.

My resume creator shows how to do the custom UI thing

I'm also trying to get this working. As it is now, I have two popups, one of which is activated through the other and is essentially a 'page 2' of the first.

What I've done is added a 'next' button to the first page that has the following actions:

  • close previous ui
  • open new ui (page 2)

This works however it isn't not cosmetically pleasing.

I will probably need to resort to python to get things working smoothly.
