App => Module => Modal

[Tess]

Hi @jeffblankenburg,

Thanks for reaching out & for bumping this in office hours

I have a few suggestions:

1. Go to the module & set the hidden property of the modal frame in the module to {{modal_visibility.value}} instead of {{modal_visibility}}

2. Create a variable in your app and set it's initial value to true. We'll use this app variable to dynamically control the visibility of the modal
   

   

3. In the app, configure modal_visibility to be equal to the variable:
   

4. On app button click, change the event handler to an event that updates the variable:
   

   

The reason I'm suggesting a variable is that add_player_module.modal_visibility is more of a read only reference that cannot be updated with =true. Instead, we want to pass a dynamic value to add_player_module.modal_visibility and then we can update that dynamic value
