How To Add A Popup Overlay Modal In Figma

Hi, everyone in this video we're gonna do something like this. There's like a pop up model kind of covers the background. Ok. In our case, we're gonna do a newsletter, but this could be any sort of pop up confirmation. Would you like to? Are you sure that type of thing? Ok. We're gonna click in the background. It goes away. Oh, I love them. All right. Let me show you how to make it here in fig A. All right. The way this works is you need a frame. Ok, close to it somewhere in your page. Ok. It can just be a plain old frame. We've designed one in the last video. That's a bit fancier. Ok. So we are going to go select the home page. I'm going to go to prototype mode and I'm going to say you go there and I don't want to be like on the click. What I want to say is maybe after some time I'm gonna type in maybe four seconds. That's not four seconds. Alright. The four seconds I want to not navigate to, I want to open an overlay. So this is where the magic happens. Ok? So we'll leave everything ...

by default and let's go and preview it. Alright, waiting, waiting. Hey it appeared go on and you can't get rid of it. So there's a couple of things we need to do is ok if you haven't got a selected, click on the little line and say after a delay cool be in the center uh close when clicking kind of around the outside, add background overlay. Ok? It's just kind of dark in the background. I like to crank it up a bit darker. So it's a bit obvious. 50 even. OK. In the animation, I'm gonna get it dissolving. All right. So I'm gonna click on home page. Go to my preview button. I'm gonna have to hit R for a reset. Wait for my four seconds and go time. Cool. Hey, OK, you can do this with any uh pop up moy thing. We're doing it for newsletter. Sign up. Yours might be a button. OK? And all you do is, let's say it's not a newsletter that automatically appears, it's something to kind of confirm something or you've clicked a button. Let's say this button here is going to do the same thing. OK? But when it's clicked instead of our delay, if you can't do a delay on a button. Ok. So when it's clicked, open up an overlay, OK. Normally goes to navigate to, you can open up this overlay. Let's go to our newsletter, sign up page all those same things. Let's have a go. I'm gonna delete this one cos it's gonna try and fight, it's gonna appear automatically, right? They delay one. So now if I click this button, hopefully it should open up. Let's give it a go. Let's hit reset and nothing's gonna happen unless I click this button and it pops up. This might be a, are you sure, are you sure you're sure you sure you want to delete things? What I mean by that is, let's have a look like I just googled pop up inspiration. You can see there's lots of different pop up models. Ok. It just darkens the screen. Don't have to leave the page. It could be any of these things. All right. So that's my pop up mo let's get into the next video.
