Hi @SetiZ. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Yes, you can use a modal to show an element without allowing any editing. Below are examples using different libraries and hooks available in refine. Using useModal Hook The useModal hook from refine allows you to manage a modal's visibility. You can use it to show an element without any editing functionality.

import { useModal } from "@refinedev/core";

export const ShowOnlyModal: React.FC = () => {
  const { visible, show, close } = useModal();

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={show}>Show Modal</button>
      {visible && (
        <YourModalComponent>
          <p>Content to Show</p>
          <button onClick={close}>Close Modal</button>
        </YourModalComponent>
      )}
    </>
  );
};

import { useModal } from "@refinedev/core";

export const ShowOnlyModal: React.FC = () => {
  const { visible, show, close } = useModal();

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={show}>Show Modal</button>
      {visible && (
        <YourModalComponent>
          <p>Content to Show</p>
          <button onClick={close}>Close Modal</button>
        </YourModalComponent>
      )}
    </>
  );
};

Source (https://refine.dev/docs/core/hooks/utilities/use-modal/) Using Material UI Modal You can also use the Material UI Modal to show an element. Here is an example:

import * as React from "react";
import Box from "@mui/material/Box";
import Button from "@mui/material/Button";
import Typography from "@mui/material/Typography";
import Modal from "@mui/material/Modal";

const style = {
  position: "absolute" as "absolute",
  top: "50%",
  left: "50%",
  transform: "translate(-50%, -50%)",
  width: 400,
  bgcolor: "background.paper",
  border: "2px solid #000",
  boxShadow: 24,
  p: 4,
};

export default function BasicModal() {
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const handleOpen = () => setOpen(true);
  const handleClose = () => setOpen(false);
return (
    <div style={{ margin: "25%" }}>
      <Button onClick={handleOpen}>Open modal</Button>
      <Modal
        open={open}
        onClose={handleClose}
        aria-labelledby="modal-modal-title"
        aria-describedby="modal-modal-description"
      >
        <Box sx={style}>
          <Typography id="modal-modal-title" variant="h6" component="h2">
            Modal Header
          </Typography>
          <Typography id="modal-modal-description" sx={{ mt: 2 }}>
            Content to Show
          </Typography>
        </Box>
      </Modal>
    </div>
  );
}

import * as React from "react";
import Box from "@mui/material/Box";
import Button from "@mui/material/Button";
import Typography from "@mui/material/Typography";
import Modal from "@mui/material/Modal";

const style = {

  width: 400,
  bgcolor: "background.paper",
  border: "2px solid #000",
  boxShadow: 24,
  p: 4,
};

export default function BasicModal() {
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const handleOpen = () => setOpen(true);
  const handleClose = () => setOpen(false);
return (
    <div style={{ margin: "25%" }}>
      <Button onClick={handleOpen}>Open modal</Button>
      <Modal
        open={open}
        onClose={handleClose}
        aria-labelledby="modal-modal-title"
        aria-describedby="modal-modal-description"
      >
        <Box sx={style}>
          <Typography id="modal-modal-title" variant="h6" component="h2">
            Modal Header
          </Typography>
          <Typography id="modal-modal-description" sx={{ mt: 2 }}>
            Content to Show
          </Typography>
        </Box>
      </Modal>
    </div>
  );
}

can you do it with antd?

@kapa.ai please do it with antd design

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly! You can use the useModal hook from refine with Ant Design to create a modal that only shows content without any editing capabilities. Here is an example: Using useModal Hook with Ant Design The useModal hook helps you manage the Ant Design Modal component. You can use it to show an element without any editing functionality.

import { useModal } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Modal, Button } from "antd";

export const ShowOnlyModal: React.FC = () => {
  const { show, modalProps } = useModal();

  return (
    <>
      <Button onClick={show}>Show Modal</Button>
      <Modal {...modalProps}>
        <p>Content to Show</p>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

import { useModal } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Modal, Button } from "antd";

export const ShowOnlyModal: React.FC = () => {
  const { show, modalProps } = useModal();

  return (
    <>
      <Button onClick={show}>Show Modal</Button>
      <Modal {...modalProps}>
        <p>Content to Show</p>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

In this example: - The useModal hook is used to manage the modal's visibility. - The show function is called when the button is clicked to open the modal. - The modalProps are spread onto the Modal component to handle its properties. This setup ensures that the modal is only used to display content without any editing capabilities. For more details, you can refer to the useModal documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-modal/). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai does this work in on a per list item? I want to show the details in a modal instead of on a separate page

kapa.ai•4mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, you can use the useModal hook to show details of a list item in a modal instead of navigating to a separate page. Below is an example of how you can achieve this using Ant Design and refine. Example: Showing Details in a Modal for Each List Item

import React, { useState } from "react";
import { useModal } from "@refinedev/core";
import { List, Table, Button, Modal, Space } from "antd";
import { useTable } from "@refinedev/antd";

const { Column } = Table;

export const ItemList: React.FC = () => {
  const [record, setRecord] = useState<any>(null);
  const { show, modalProps } = useModal();

  const { tableProps } = useTable<any>();

  return (
    <>
      <List>
        <Table {...tableProps}>
          <Column dataIndex="id" title="ID" />
          <Column dataIndex="name" title="Name" />
          <Column
            title="Actions"
            dataIndex="actions"
            render={(_, record) => (
              <Space>
                <Button
                  size="small"
                  onClick={() => {
                    setRecord(record);
                    show();
                  }}
                >
                  View Details
                </Button>
              </Space>
            )}
          />
        </Table>
      </List>
      <Modal {...modalProps} title="Item Details">
        {record && (
          <div>
            <p><strong>ID:</strong> {record.id}</p>
            <p><strong>Name:</strong> {record.name}</p>
            {/* Add more fields as needed */}
          </div>
        )}
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

import React, { useState } from "react";
import { useModal } from "@refinedev/core";
import { List, Table, Button, Modal, Space } from "antd";
import { useTable } from "@refinedev/antd";

const { Column } = Table;

export const ItemList: React.FC = () => {
  const [record, setRecord] = useState<any>(null);
  const { show, modalProps } = useModal();

  const { tableProps } = useTable<any>();

  return (
    <>
      <List>
        <Table {...tableProps}>
          <Column dataIndex="id" title="ID" />
          <Column dataIndex="name" title="Name" />
          <Column
            title="Actions"
            dataIndex="actions"
            render={(_, record) => (
              <Space>
                <Button
                  size="small"
                  onClick={() => {
                    setRecord(record);
                    show();
                  }}
                >
                  View Details
                </Button>
              </Space>
            )}
          />
        </Table>
      </List>
      <Modal {...modalProps} title="Item Details">
        {record && (
          <div>
            <p><strong>ID:</strong> {record.id}</p>
            <p><strong>Name:</strong> {record.name}</p>
            {/* Add more fields as needed */}
          </div>
        )}
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

Explanation: 1. State Management: We use the useState hook to manage the currently selected record. 2. useModal Hook: The useModal hook is used to manage the modal's visibility. 3. Table Setup: The useTable hook is used to fetch and display the list of items in a table. 4. Actions Column: In the Actions column, we add a View Details button for each row. When clicked, it sets the current record and shows the modal. 5. Modal: The modal displays the details of the selected record. This setup ensures that when you click the "View Details" button for any list item, a modal will appear showing the details of that specific item. For more details, you can refer to the useModal documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-modal/). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai is there a way to do it without a separate state for the record?

kapa.ai•4mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, you can achieve this without using a separate state for the record by leveraging the useModalForm hook from refine. This hook can manage the modal's visibility and the form data, including the record, in a more integrated way. Example: Showing Details in a Modal for Each List Item Using useModalForm

import React from "react";
import { useModalForm, useTable } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { List, Table, Button, Modal, Space } from "antd";

const { Column } = Table;

export const ItemList: React.FC = () => {
  const { tableProps } = useTable<any>();

  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
  } = useModalForm<any>({
    action: "view",
  });

  return (
    <>
      <List>
        <Table {...tableProps}>
          <Column dataIndex="id" title="ID" />
          <Column dataIndex="name" title="Name" />
          <Column
            title="Actions"
            dataIndex="actions"
            render={(_, record) => (
              <Space>
                <Button
                  size="small"
                  onClick={() => show(record.id)}
                >
                  View Details
                </Button>
              </Space>
            )}
          />
        </Table>
      </List>
      <Modal {...modalProps} title="Item Details">
        <form {...formProps}>
          <p><strong>ID:</strong> {formProps.initialValues?.id}</p>
          <p><strong>Name:</strong> {formProps.initialValues?.name}</p>
          {/* Add more fields as needed */}
        </form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

import React from "react";
import { useModalForm, useTable } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { List, Table, Button, Modal, Space } from "antd";

const { Column } = Table;

export const ItemList: React.FC = () => {
  const { tableProps } = useTable<any>();

  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
  } = useModalForm<any>({
    action: "view",

  return (
    <>
      <List>
        <Table {...tableProps}>
          <Column dataIndex="id" title="ID" />
          <Column dataIndex="name" title="Name" />
          <Column
            title="Actions"
            dataIndex="actions"
            render={(_, record) => (
              <Space>
                <Button
                  size="small"
                  onClick={() => show(record.id)}
                >
                  View Details
                </Button>
              </Space>
            )}
          />
        </Table>
      </List>
      <Modal {...modalProps} title="Item Details">
        <form {...formProps}>
          <p><strong>ID:</strong> {formProps.initialValues?.id}</p>
          <p><strong>Name:</strong> {formProps.initialValues?.name}</p>
          {/* Add more fields as needed */}
        </form>
      </Modal>

  );
};

Explanation: 1. useModalForm Hook: The useModalForm hook is used to manage the modal's visibility and form data, including the record. 2. Table Setup: The useTable hook is used to fetch and display the list of items in a table. 3. Actions Column: In the Actions column, we add a View Details button for each row. When clicked, it calls the show method with the record's ID. 4. Modal: The modal displays the details of the selected record using the formProps provided by the useModalForm hook. This approach eliminates the need for a separate state to manage the record, as the useModalForm hook handles it internally. For more details, you can refer to the useModalForm documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-modal-form/#usage). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
