It's possible that this isn't supposed to work with this module, so let me know if that's the case. But based on the other issues I've read regarding pagers, I get the impression that I should be able to do this:

we have a small view that generates a user account dashboard: links to common functions that a user might need to access from anywhere on the site. We want this to appear when the user mouses over their name in the upper right corner of the screen. The pop-up seems to work fine, but as soon as you move the mouse towards the pop-up, the pop-up vanishes. Since i see other people talking about interacting with Views pagers (presumably inside of a popped-up view), I would think that I should be able to click on links inside of the view, as long as I'm moused over the popup area.

is this not the case?

This is currently not possible because of the way the popup is invoked which is moving the cursor over the row. This allows moving down a list and having each popup appear after another disappears.

What you probably want is a feature that is on the wish list and that is a clickable popup. That is a major change a likely a separate module. In this case you would need to click on a field to display the popup and click to hide it or use one of the links in the popup. No idea when I will get around to something like this.

If you have time please check this link: http://caps.fool.com/tickerrankings.aspx?filter=7&sortcol=38&sortdir=1

On the list, when you hover the abbreviation (the first column - ticker) a popup appears. And after you hover out, it disappears, allowing interaction with the rest of the table.

It would be a really nice feature for this module.

Thanks...

I am also interested in clickable popups. Is there any other module that provide this feature in views?

Interesting. I'll have to see if I can add this as an option. The operation is slightly different. There is a delay when the cursor moves out of the initial area. This allows the cursor to be moved into the popup.

Need to migrate to 3.x version that provides this support. 7.x-3.x is ready. 6.x-3.x is in the works.
