Callouts in SharePoint 2013 Preview

Anatoly Mironov

While ModalDialog is not default for editing list items in SharePoint 2013 Preview, there is a new “popup” element in SharePoint - callout or popover. I would like to recommend these two blogs when you want discover more: Andrey Markeev: Callouts (popovers) в SharePoint 2013 Preview (in Russian) Alex Boev: a three part series: 1. Custom Callouts in the SharePoint 2013 Metro UI: Part 1: Basics 2. Custom Callouts in the SharePoint 2013 Metro UI, Part 2: Actions 3. Custom Callouts in the SharePoint 2013 Metro UI, Part 3: CalloutManager To get introduced with callouts in SharePoint 2013, you can run this code (from Andrey Markeev’s blog):

myCustomCallout = calloutManager.createNewIfNecessary({
    ID: 'myCallout1',
    title: 'Hello world!',
    content: 'Please, click [here](http://google.com).',
    launchPoint: $get('ctl00\_DeltaPlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea')
});
myCustomCallout.open();

Which will result in: Custom Callouts in SharePoint 2013 Preview (from Andrey Markeev’s blog)

Hi! When something is undefined like m$, then the callout.js has not been loaded correctly, or some parameter is missing. Post some code example in a comment and I’ll see if I can help you. Cheers.

Hi, I read your article but when I tried to implement it in my environment in App Part it is giving me error. “‘IsElementRtl’ is undefined” can you help me in fixing this. Thanks, Ritesh

Hi, Ritesh! I haven’t tested it in an App Part. I suppose, some js references are not loaded. Try to figure out what references are missing. You can even ask a question in SharePoint Stackexchange where many experts can give a good answer.
