IEG is most commonly used in conjunction with other screens which form a logical and seamless flow for an application. This flow may be launched from a given page and open a modal dialog instead of a new tab or link to a new page. This is where the agency wants to indicate to the client that an application for a service or benefit has started.
There is a slightly different look and feel when screens and the IEG Player are opened in a modal. To accommodate for changes to the display of the IEG Player when running in a modal rather than in a tab, there are configuration properties set. Some examples of these are:
These properties are set in the configuration file associated with the script, and by default in ieg-config.properties. A full list is provided below:
