Didn't find anything about hiding (not automatic close).
I have a button and a visible layer with some graphics.
I want to click on a button and hide this layer.
Is there any way to do this?
Thank you!

In the Page & Layer gallery, click the eye icon next to the layer that you want to hide.
That is one way, yes.
Forgotten to say one detail: I've rendered an HTML and wanted to hide layer by clicking on the link.
Create an object or text object on your pop-up layer.
Select the object and select the Names yellow tag icon and add the name popup:close
Close the dialog.
ntrox, Xara has an undocumented feature where a Link can be used as close: popup or close: popup "layerName".Quote:

well, the document you've provided is a Print document. A web document is needed with MouseOff and MouseOver layers and the pop-up on its own layr.Quote:

- Switch to the MouseOff layer. and add a button or link with action Link > Pop-up layer: Pop-up.
- Preview your page, when you click this last link the Pop-up layer opens and when you click anywhere on the displayed page, or on the pop-up object(s), the layer closes.
- If you chose to alter the Link > Pop-up layer: Pop-up Settings (button to the right), you could untick close pop-up automatically and you then have a round black and white X on the top rightmost point of your layer's shapes that close the layer.
- I would soft-group them all and then add Link > Link to web: popup close or even close: popup "Pop-up". This add a hand pointer so your users knows to expect something if they were to perform a click.
Now, I use code to hide the round black and white X to prevent accidental closure of the layer. I then add a specific button with popup: close to close the layer.
There are variations, using code, to force the Pop-up layer to be already open when the page loads but I am assuming you just want the vanilla solution.

Thank you very much for such detailed answer! I'll to work with it.
The only question - how to gide that black circle with white X?
I use some CSS in the Page HTML code (head):Quote:

Perfect! Thank you again )
Finally It works )))
gwpriester, you've fogot to add link "popup:close" to the red square button!
In fact, I just looked, there was a screen capture of the Names dialog with popup:close on the layer. And it works.Quote:

That said, I just learned that if popup:close is added as a Link instead of a Name the close button becomes interactive. So there you go.
Acorn Thank You SO Much!!!! This was driving me crazy.
