With the new modal frame, being able to make the modal appear at a specific position would be awesome.
One major use would be to create walkthroughs for our apps.

Hey all - I want to break this down into what seems to be the core two asks: draggable modals and programmatically positioned modals.
Can folks in the thread (and who +1'd) clarify whether you need:
We're building Popovers to handle the programmatic positioning of modal-like frames, so I'd like to assess the demand for dragability on its own.
Thanks!
number 2 for me.
I'd vote for 3, with a priority on 2 then 1.
+1 (late to the party!)
For my use case #1 is priority "draggable modals" - often there is data in the parent window that I would like my users to be able to see when working in a modal.
Hi,
@MattWG, in that case, maybe you could try the new Drawer and SplitPane for you use-case.
Worth trying.
Hey @MicExpert - Popovers were unfortunately deprioritized this spring but they're currently scoped for late Q3 this year. Hopefully we'll have something to share soon, and I'll update this thread when we do.
Thanks @MicExpert yep - that is what we now use instead of modals. The drawer is super helpful. Thanks for sharing.
+1 on being able to programmatically position modals.
@kent Looks like Retool doesn't use Retool to create the Retool documentation / demos. When you click on the "open modal" button on Modal | Retool Component Library, the modal opens next to the button (and not on the center of the screen). This is exactly the behavior I would want.
Number 2!
