Dialog

Description

A dialog box (Dialog) is a temporary pop-up that takes focus from the page or app and requires people to interact with it. It’s primarily used for confirming actions, such as deleting a file, or asking people to make a choice.

For more details and examples visit the official docs. The R package cannot handle each and every case, so for advanced use cases you need to work using the original docs to achieve the desired result.

Best practices

Layout

• Don't use more than three buttons.

• Dialog boxes consist of a header, body, and footer.

• Validate that people’s entries are acceptable before closing the dialog box. Show an inline validation error near the field they must correct.

• Blocking dialogs should be used very sparingly, only when it is critical that people make a choice or provide information before they can proceed. Blocking dialogs are generally used for irreversible or potentially destructive tasks. They’re typically paired with an overlay without a light dismiss.

Header

• Locks to the top of the dialog.

• May include an icon to the left of the title.

• Includes a Close button in the top-right corner.

Footer

• Lock buttons to the bottom of the dialog.

• Includes one primary button. A secondary button is optional.

Width

• Maximum is 340 pixels.

• Minimum is 288 pixels.

Height

• Maximum is 340 pixels.

• Minimum is 172 pixels.

Content

Title

• Keep the title as concise as possible.

• Don’t use periods at the end of titles.

• This mandatory content should explain the main information in a clear, concise, and specific statement or question. For example, “Delete this file?” instead of “Are you sure?”

• The title shouldn’t be a description of the body content. For example, don’t use “Error” as a title. Instead, use an informative statement like “Your session ended.”

• Use sentence-style capitalization—only capitalize the first word. For more info, see Capitalization in the Microsoft Writing Style Guide.

Body copy (Optional)

• Don't restate the title in the body.

• Use ending punctuation on sentences.

• Use actionable language, with the most important information at the beginning.

• Use the optional body content area for additional info or instructions, if needed. Only include information needed to help people make a decision.

Button labels

• Write button labels that are specific responses to the main information in the title. The title “Delete this file?” could have buttons labeled “Delete” and “Cancel”.

• Be concise. Limit labels to one or two words. Usually a single verb is best. Include a noun if there is any room for interpretation about what the verb means. For example, “Delete” or “Delete file”.

library(shiny.fluent)

ui <- function(id) {
  ns <- NS(id)
  div(
    DefaultButton.shinyInput(ns("showDialog"), text = "Open dialog"),
    reactOutput(ns("reactDialog"))
  )
}

server <- function(id) {
  moduleServer(id, function(input, output, session) {
    ns <- session$ns

    isDialogOpen <- reactiveVal(FALSE)
    output$reactDialog <- renderReact({
      dialogContentProps <- list(
        type = 0,
        title = "Missing Subject",
        closeButtonAriaLabel = "Close",
        subText = "Do you want to send this message without a subject?"
      )
      Dialog(
        hidden = !isDialogOpen(),
        onDismiss = JS(paste0(
          "function() {",
          "  Shiny.setInputValue('", ns("hideDialog"),"', Math.random());",
          "}"
        )),
        dialogContentProps = dialogContentProps,
        modalProps = list(),
        DialogFooter(
          PrimaryButton.shinyInput(ns("dialogSend"), text = "Send"),
          DefaultButton.shinyInput(ns("dialogDontSend"), text = "Don't send")
        )
      )
    })

    observeEvent(input$showDialog, isDialogOpen(TRUE))
