Summary

A Popover is used to manage the presentation of content in a popover.

Description

You use popovers to present information temporarily but in a way that does not take over the entire screen like a modal view does. The popover content is layered on top of your existing content in a special type of window. The popover remains visible until the user taps outside of the popover window or you explicitly dismiss it. The Popover is created by the method Titanium.UI.iPad.createPopover.

Code Examples

Simple Popover

In this example, we create a simple popover and position it near the button

var popover = Ti.UI.iPad.createPopover({height:100,width:100});
popover.add(view);
popover.show({view:button});

Popover with title and nav button

In this example, we create a popover with a title and right navigation button.

var popover = Ti.UI.iPad.createPopover({ 
    width:250, 
    height:100,
    title: "Yo Yo",
    rightNavButton:button
});
