Override current frames to one big frame

[BobbyOfWindsor1974]

Hi, is there a way to interrupt the current display to display a full screen frame?

We go out and get weather alerts, then depending if there is a weather alert, we want to interrupt the current presentation to show a weather warning on the entire screen?

Where do I need to put the hooks if possible?

Hi, if I understood you right, forcing a full frame content at the exact time the administrator wants, would be a neat feature.

Unfortunately, the following are the fundamental design aspects which preclude the desired feature - 1) DM offers no "preemptive-ness" between frames and panels, that is all frames are first class citizens which await their turn in the fair order 2) DM does not support synchronous content between monitors

Yet, it brings several questions - how to trigger a frame from DMM UI (for consistency, DMM UI should support the same what could be otherwise available thru API), specifically which frame (assuming there may be more than one), when the frame should be dismissed, etc.

I will log this as an enhancement, hopefully something like that can be implemented in the future.

Appreciated. I can show it on one of the frames, but for something sever, it would be nice to override to a full screen for a warning if required.

Thanks
