Hi,

popups are not only for notifications, you can it use for example with 
simple user inputs like the ColorPopup [1]. But generyla it is not a 
good idea to use popups for complex user input, because the popup 
automatically close when the user clicks outside the popup.

I think in your case you should use a qx.ui.window.Window to get the 
missing user input (maybe as modal window).

Cheers,
Chris

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
