Dialog

The Dialog macro allows you to create Atlassian user Interface styled dialogs that are triggered using a button. The dialog macro is used in combination with the Button Hyperlink macro and the Span macro. Using this combination of macros you create a popup box with options that can lead to different locations. You can customise the look of the dialog using our CSS Style Sheet macro.

Navigate to the page you want to edit.

Click Insert More Content → Other Macros .
