Show a modal from an activity
I am using Call ProcessAction from my activity to show a modal dialog. I am passing the following parameters.
NewTaskStatus : EscalatePrioritize (Name of my flow action)
ActionSection : EscalatePrioritize (Name of the section referrenced in the above flow action)
StreamType / StreamClass : Rule-HTML-Section
bIsModal->true
The activity however, does not show the modal.
I have attached the list of all the parameters needed by the OOTB ProcessAction activity. Are any more parameters needed.

Hello,
Calling a MODAL from an activity is an unusual mechanism I think. Can we have a bit more information on the design, where are you calling this activity from originally ?

Right,
In user interface design for computer applications, a modal window is a graphical control element subordinate to an application's main window. It creates a mode that disables the main window, but keeps it visible with the modal window as a child window in front of it.
So if you are calling the MODAL on post-processing of your flow action, what would be your main window at this point ? Does it has to be a MODAL really, could it be just another assignment ?

The section referred in the flow action would be my main window. The Section EscalateOrPrioritize given in the image below :
This section is not a modal.It could also be any other assignment.

Hello,
I'm not sure to fully get the scenario:
1) You are on a FLOW ACTION (EscalateOrPrioritize)
2) You now click SUBMIT, calling post processing activity
3) At this point your FLOW ACTION screen will disappear, system is moving to the next assignment or a review HARNESS
So I do not see why you need a MODAL during this phase. There is no main window, you are moving from one assignment to another.

I however want this message to be displayed in a modal.Now, i know that it is possible to display this modal by using event-action in the actions tab of a property in the section. It was tried and tested and was working fine. I just want to know how to do the same from within an acitivity, just for my information.
Hope this gives you a better understanding of the purpose of this question.
Thanks
