modalDialog(
  ...,
  title = NULL,
  footer = modalButton("Dismiss"),
  size = c("m", "s", "l"),
  easyClose = FALSE,
  fade = TRUE
)

Arguments

...

UI elements for the body of the modal dialog box.

title

An optional title for the dialog.

footer

UI for footer. Use NULL for no footer.

size

One of "s" for small, "m" (the default) for medium, or "l" for large.

easyClose

If TRUE, the modal dialog can be dismissed by clicking outside the dialog box, or be pressing the Escape key. If FALSE (the default), the modal dialog can't be dismissed in those ways; instead it must be dismissed by clicking on the dismiss button, or from a call to removeModal() on the server.

fade

If FALSE, the modal dialog will have no fade-in animation (it will simply appear rather than fade in to view).
