Dear community,
Modal popup windows are a very frequently asked UI element Appian does not provide OOTB.
The purpose of a popup is to make any UI element fade into the background and provide an isolated area to require a specific input from the user. In Appian, we cannot implement this visual style directly, but we can achieve a very similar behavior. Instead, we hide all UI elements and display a single centered card layout. This card contains all the necessary elements. When a user clicks a button, the popup is closed, and the rest of the UI becomes visible again.
Read my blog post for more details.

Would these be affected by any popup blockers installed in the browser?
As they are no real popups, the browser cannot block them.
Thought so. Thanks for the speedy response!
