Modal Frame keeps disappearing

I am trying to work with a modal Frame and it keeps disappearing even when the hidden property is set to false.

Is there a solution for this?

Hey @mdsmith1

Have you checked whether "Close when clicking outside" is enabled in the modal inspector? If it's enabled, the modal will close whenever you click outside of it. Try disabling that option by unchecking the checkbox highlighted in the screenshot. Once it's disabled, the modal should remain open instead of closing when you click outside of it.

Thank you for this. I found the button. I also found the hidden = "false" feature. It seems that the default settings are set to make this thing fail.

I seriously wonder why any anyone would use this thing because it won't move.

I am now using a container which does move.

Years ago the modal frame would move and it could have been put on top of other components. I found this very useful.

It appears this has been retrograded over the years.
