popup widget is always on top

In ODC Studio, when I place a popup widget on the screen, the popup widget is always placed on the front of the screen edit screen, and I cannot change other widgets.

How can I avoid it?

Hi @幸俊 稲垣 ,

After selecting the Popup from the Widget tree, you will be able to see the option to expand or collapse the popup. You can use this.

Hello,

In the Widget Tree, switch to Display Mode, right-click on the pop-up widget, and select Collapse. The pop-up will then be hidden.

when working intensely on a screen on both the stuff on the screen and on the popup, I personally don't like the constant switching of the popup's visibility.

There is also another problem that popups with a lot of content don't show all of it in the design view.

To solve both i prefer the trick i shared here :
