C-More Popup Frame

I am just getting started with C-More (A-B pricing is through the roof.) I need to create a popup window to be used as a motor controller. I have created a new screen with my popup buttons, indicators, etc. I have put a popup window frame object on my main screen and made it the size I need the final popup to be. The frame now sits nioely in the middle of my main screen, right in the way of more main screen work. If I use a standard change window call button to my popup screen, I get a full screen instead of the popup window. After all of that, I need a button on my main screen to simply open the small popup and a button on my popup to close it. I am sure I could get this from the software manual, if there was one. Thanks for helping a AD newbe.

    You can right click on the frame and send the it to the back and put stuff on top of it.

    And yes, you will need a toggle pushbutton to open the window on the main screen and another on the popup to close it.
