Remove Lightbox Modal function

Is there any way to remove the Modal when the lightbox is open. I want to be able to click a button in the lightbox which opens a DHTMLXwindow to another URL and then interactive with the URL while the lightbox remains open. With the Modal activated I can not interact with the newly opened window.

It seems like it should also be possible to automatically close the Lightbox when I click my button to open the window by using endLightbox or editStop but neither of these seem to work. Maybe I don’t understand the correct syntax for using these. I am trying to use them inside a onLightbox function.

Actually it would be even better if I could open the new window before opening the Lightbox. Is is possible to add an additional button to the Side Panel that opens when you single click on a event.

Yes, you can add the new block in the configuration structure
docs.dhtmlx.com/doku.php?id=dhtm … tion_menus

After that you can define bg image for new button as

div .icon_myicon{
background-image:url(imgs/controls.gif); //custom image
background-position: 0px 0px;
}

and click handler as

scheduler._click.buttons.myicon = function(id){ … };

Is there any way to remove the Modal when the lightbox is open. 

You can lower down modality, so it will be below dhtmlxWindows

in dhtmlxscheduler.css you can modify z-index values for .dhx_cal_light and .dhx_cal_cover css classes

Thanks - works perfectly. One thing how do I define the label for this new button?

scheduler.locale.labels.icon_myicon = "Text";
