Moveable modal windows #4249

Open victoriawva opened 4 years ago

victoriawva commented 4 years ago

Feature request

modal windows that pop up in front of the current window should be movable since they obscure portions of the screen which may be useful when filling in the modal.

This has been requested before and declined, see https://github.com/palantir/blueprint/issues/336 and https://github.com/palantir/blueprint/issues/1540. My stance on adding this kind of interaction to the core Blueprint library is basically unchanged. I think it should be relatively straightforward for you to use a Blueprint dialog (<Dialog hasBackdrop={false} usePortal={false}>) along with the drag & drop / resizing library of your choice.
