Hi folks,

Via a Template-node it is possible to show html content in a popup dialog.  
However I was now wondering if it is also possible to show a UI node (_node-red-contrib-ui-xxxxxx_) in a modal popup dialog, i.e. on top of the other dashboard widgets.

I expect the answer consists out of two letters only: starting with `"N"` and ending with `"O"` ...

Thanks!!  
Bart

Well, in this case your expectation isn't right.

The answer ends with 'possible' and starts with 'im'.
