Type Of Dialog

[anushap40132887]

What is the primary type of "dialog"?

When we create dialog, jcr:primarytype is "cq:Dialog" , but in adobe documentation its is mentioned as "nt:unstuctured".

Also for design dialog ,it is mentioned as cq:dialog in one place and "nt:unstructured" in other place.

Hi Anusha,

For touch ui, Dialog and Design dialog primary type should be nt:unstructured,  where as in Classic UI  dialog and design dialog primary type should be cq:Dialog

As scott stated, follow the community article - https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-touchui-component.html

And also see this https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/develop/components/components-touch-optimized.html - You will find here the difference.

Hope this helps!!

Thanks,
Ratna Kumar.

Hi 

for touch ui Dialog and Design dialog primary type should be nt:unstructured and in Classic UI dialog and design dialog primary type should be cq:Dialog

Please have a look at this community article:

Link:- http://suryakand-shinde.blogspot.in/2014/05/cqaem-dialog-vs-design-dialog.html

// AEM DIALOG V/S DESIGN DIALOG

    A component is CQ is a smallest unit that can dropped on a page and content author can fill in any content in it. Content can be of two types:
    Page specific (in this case component dialog is used)
    Design/Global (in this case design_dialog is used)
    The way a dialog or design_dialog is defined is exactly same, there are only two differences:
    The obvious difference is in their name i.e. “dialog” and “design_dialog”
