Prevent closing of modal dialog in Vue Dialog component

16 Mar 202310 minutes to read

You can prevent closing of modal dialog by setting the beforeClose event argument cancel value to true.
In the following sample, the dialog is closed when you enter the username value with minimum 4 characters. Otherwise, it will not be closed.

<template>
  <div>
    <div id="dialogTarget" class="control-section; position:relative" style="height:350px;">
        <!-- Render Button to open the modal Dialog -->
        <ejs-button id='dlgbtn' v-on:click.native="dlgBtnClick">Open Dialog</ejs-button>
        <!-- Render modal Dialog -->
        <ejs-dialog ref="modalDialog"  :isModal='isModal':beforeClose="validation" :header='header' :target='target' :width='width' :buttons='buttons' :animationSettings='animationSettings' :close="modalDlgClose" >
            <div class='wrap'>
                  <div class="e-float-input">
                      <input id="textvalue" type="text" required/>
                      <span class="e-float-line"></span>
                      <label class="e-float-text">Username</label>
                  </div>
                  <div class="e-float-input">
                      <input id="textvalue2" type="password" required/>
                      <span class="e-float-line"></span>
                      <label class="e-float-text">Password</label>
