[angularjs] How do I increase modal width in Angular UI Bootstrap?

I am creating a modal:

var modal = $modal.open({
                    templateUrl: "/partials/welcome",
                    controller: "welcomeCtrl",
                    backdrop: "static",
                    scope: $scope,
                });

is there a way to increase its width?

This question is related to angularjs angular-ui-bootstrap

The answer is


Use max-width on modal-dialog for angular 5

.mod-class .modal-dialog {
    max-width: 1000px;
}

and use windowClass as others recommended, TS eg:

this.modalService.open(content, { windowClass: 'mod-class' }).result.then(
        (result) => {
            // this.closeResult = `Closed with: ${result}`;
         }, (reason) => {
            // this.closeResult = `Dismissed ${this.getDismissReason(reason)}`;
});

Also, I had to put the css code in global styles > styles.css.


I solved the problem using Dmitry Komin solution, but with different CSS syntax to make it works directly in browser.

CSS

@media(min-width: 1400px){
    .my-modal > .modal-lg {
        width: 1308px;
    }
}

JS is the same:

var modal = $modal.open({
    animation: true,
    templateUrl: 'modalTemplate.html',
    controller: 'modalController',
    size: 'lg',
    windowClass: 'my-modal'
});

When we open a modal it accept size as a paramenter:

Possible values for it size: sm, md, lg

$scope.openModal = function (size) {
var modal = $modal.open({
      size: size,
      templateUrl: "/app/user/welcome.html",
      ...... 
      });
}

HTML:

<button type="button" 
    class="btn btn-default" 
    ng-click="openModal('sm')">Small Modal</button>

<button type="button" 
    class="btn btn-default" 
    ng-click="openModal('md')">Medium Modal</button>

<button type="button" 
    class="btn btn-default" 
    ng-click="openModal('lg')">Large Modal</button>

If you want any specific size, add style on model HTML:

<style>.modal-dialog {width: 500px;} </style>

there is another way wich you don't have to overwrite uibModal classes and use them if needed : you call $uibModal.open function with your own size type like "xlg" and then you define a class named "modal-xlg" like below :

.modal-xlg{
   width:1200px;
}

call $uibModal.open as :

 var modalInstance = $uibModal.open({
                ...  
                size: "xlg",
            });

and this will work . because whatever string you pass as size bootstrap will cocant it with "modal-" and this will play the role of class for window.


I found it easier to just take over the template from Bootstrap-ui. I have left the commented HTML still in-place to show what I changed.

Overwrite their default template:

<script type="text/ng-template" id="myDlgTemplateWrapper.html">
    <div tabindex="-1" role="dialog" class="modal fade" ng-class="{in: animate}" 
         ng-style="{'z-index': 1050 + index*10, display: 'block'}" ng-click="close($event)"> 
        <!-- <div class="modal-dialog"
            ng-class="{'modal-sm': size == 'sm', 'modal-lg': size == 'lg'}"
            >
            <div class="modal-content"  modal-transclude></div>
        </div>--> 

        <div modal-transclude>
            <!-- Your content goes here -->
        </div>
    </div>
</script>

Modify your dialog template (note the wrapper DIVs containing "modal-dialog" class and "modal-content" class):

<script type="text/ng-template" id="myModalContent.html">
    <div class="modal-dialog {{extraDlgClass}}"
         style="width: {{width}}; max-width: {{maxWidth}}; min-width: {{minWidth}}; ">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <div class="modal-header bg-primary">
                <h3>I am a more flexible modal!</h3>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-body"
                 style="min-height: {{minHeight}}; height: {{height}}; max-height {{maxHeight}}; ">
                <p>Make me any size you want</p>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-footer">
                <button class="btn btn-primary" ng-click="ok()">OK</button>
                <button class="btn btn-warning" ng-click="cancel()">Cancel</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</script>

And then call the modal with whatever CSS class or style parameters you wish to change (assuming you have already defined "app" somewhere else):

<script type="text/javascript">
    app.controller("myTest", ["$scope", "$modal", function ($scope, $modal)
    {
        //  Adjust these with your parameters as needed

        $scope.extraDlgClass = undefined;

        $scope.width = "70%";
        $scope.height = "200px";
        $scope.maxWidth = undefined;
        $scope.maxHeight = undefined;
        $scope.minWidth = undefined;
        $scope.minHeight = undefined;

        $scope.open = function ()
        {
            $scope.modalInstance = $modal.open(
            {
                backdrop: 'static',
                keyboard: false,
                modalFade: true,

                templateUrl: "myModalContent.html",
                windowTemplateUrl: "myDlgTemplateWrapper.html",
                scope: $scope,
                //size: size,   - overwritten by the extraDlgClass below (use 'modal-lg' or 'modal-sm' if desired)

                extraDlgClass: $scope.extraDlgClass,

                width: $scope.width,
                height: $scope.height,
                maxWidth: $scope.maxWidth,
                maxHeight: $scope.maxHeight,
                minWidth: $scope.minWidth,
                minHeight: $scope.minHeight
            });

            $scope.modalInstance.result.then(function ()
            {
                console.log('Modal closed at: ' + new Date());
            },
            function ()
            {
                console.log('Modal dismissed at: ' + new Date());
            });
        };

        $scope.ok = function ($event)
        {
            if ($event)
                $event.preventDefault();
            $scope.modalInstance.close("OK");
        };

        $scope.cancel = function ($event)
        {
            if ($event)
                $event.preventDefault();
            $scope.modalInstance.dismiss('cancel');
        };

        $scope.openFlexModal = function ()
        {
            $scope.open();
        }

    }]);
</script>

Add an "open" button and fire away.

    <button ng-controller="myTest" class="btn btn-default" type="button" ng-click="openFlexModal();">Open Flex Modal!</button>

Now you can add whatever extra class you want, or simply change width/height sizes as necessary.

I further enclosed it within a wrapper directive, which is should be trivial from this point forward.

Cheers.


If you want to just go with the default large size you can add 'modal-lg':

var modal = $modal.open({
          templateUrl: "/partials/welcome",
          controller: "welcomeCtrl",
          backdrop: "static",
          scope: $scope,
          windowClass: 'modal-lg'
});

You can specify custom width for .modal-lg class specifically for your popup for wider viewport resolution. Here is how to do it:

CSS:

@media (min-width: 1400px){

   .my-modal-popup .modal-lg {
       width: 1308px;
   }       

}

JS:

var modal = $modal.open({
    animation: true,
    templateUrl: 'modalTemplate.html',
    controller: 'modalController',
    size: 'lg',
    windowClass: 'my-modal-popup'
});

Another easy way is to use 2 premade sizes and pass them as parameter when calling the function in your html. use: 'lg' for large modals with width 900px 'sm' for small modals with width 300px or passing no parameter you use the default size which is 600px.

example code:

$scope.openModal = function (size) {
var modal = $modal.open({
                templateUrl: "/partials/welcome",
                controller: "welcomeCtrl",
                backdrop: "static",
                scope: $scope,
                size: size,
            });
modal.result.then(
        //close
        function (result) {
            var a = result;
        },
        //dismiss
        function (result) {
            var a = result;
        });
};

and in the html I would use something like the following:

<button ng-click="openModal('lg')">open Modal</button>  

You can do this in very simple way using size property of angular modal.

var modal = $modal.open({
                    templateUrl: "/partials/welcome",
                    controller: "welcomeCtrl",
                    backdrop: "static",
                    scope: $scope,
                    size:'lg' // you can try different width like 'sm', 'md'
                });
