Pop-up box with text (not a screen the user must complete) on transition?

kdickason

As a post function in a workflow, I'd like to be able to pop up a screen or popup box with some text in it for the user to read.  I know you can add a screen between transitions with fields, but I don't want the user to complete anything, I just want to tell them something before they continue.  How can I do this?  I tried making a screen with a text field and auto-populating the text field with my message, but it looks a bit strange. Is there any other way to make a text-only screen or popup display -- and NO, I cannot buy an add-on.  Thank you.

Hi @kdickason - You could try a Message Custom Field which is a read only field where the only way to populate the field is by setting a default value.  The default value can be set with markdown and you could put something like a panel. Here's an example where you could use the Info Panel:

{panel:bgColor=#deebff}

Insert message here with whatever additional formatting you want
{panel}

Then add this field to a transition screen and it will have more of that informational look you're going for.
