## Dialog Informs users while preserving the current page state. ### Basic usage Dialog pops up a dialog box, and it's quite customizable. :::demo Set the `visible` attribute with a `Boolean`, and Dialog shows when it is `true`. The Dialog has two parts: `body` and `footer`, and the latter requires a `slot` named `footer`. The optional `title` attribute (empty by default) is for defining a title. Finally, this example demonstrates how `before-close` is used. ```html click to open the Dialog This is a message ``` ::: :::tip `before-close` only works when user clicks the close icon or the backdrop. If you have buttons that close the Dialog in the `footer` named slot, you can add what you would do with `before-close` in the buttons' click event handler. ::: ### Customizations The content of Dialog can be anything, even a table or a form. This example shows how to use Element Plus Table and Form with Dialog。 :::demo ```html open a Table nested Dialog open a Form nested Dialog ``` ::: ### Nested Dialog If a Dialog is nested in another Dialog, `append-to-body` is required. :::demo Normally we do not recommend using nested Dialog. If you need multiple Dialogs rendered on the page, you can simply flat them so that they're siblings to each other. If you must nest a Dialog inside another Dialog, set `append-to-body` of the nested Dialog to true, and it will append to body instead of its parent node, so both Dialogs can be correctly rendered. ```html ``` ::: ### Centered content Dialog's content can be centered. :::demo Setting `center` to `true` will center dialog's header and footer horizontally. `center` only affects Dialog's header and footer. The body of Dialog can be anything, so sometimes it may not look good when centered. You need to write some CSS if you wish to center the body as well. ```html ``` ::: :::tip The content of Dialog is lazily rendered, which means the default slot is not rendered onto the DOM until it is firstly opened. Therefore, if you need to perform a DOM manipulation or access a component using `ref`, do it in the `open` event callback. ::: :::tip If the variable bound to `visible` is managed in Vuex store, the `.sync` can not work properly. In this case, please remove the `.sync` modifier, listen to `open` and `close` events of Dialog, and commit Vuex mutations to update the value of that variable in the event handlers. ::: ### Attributes | Attribute | Description | Type | Accepted Values | Default | |---------- |-------------- |---------- |-------------------------------- |-------- | | model-value / v-model | visibility of Dialog | boolean | — | — | | title | title of Dialog.
