Create View That Overlays The Theme When Field Clicked Hello i like the feature that ive seen on a few themes where it lets you have an overlay button top left and when you click it it overlays the whole screen with a grid or in my case a picture. Here;s a video explaining more if you dont mind. Its just brief.

I would like to create a View and let the items on it have the same function as this overlay button. Im sure it would be possible. I could do most of it barr the action of clicking a view title (button) and making html overlay.

Actually there sounds like there will be a module to do this. I would rather avoid if i could. Maybe some jquery or something wuld be easier? 

Thanks
You can achieve this effect like this for example:


You put a view block on top (which will overlay the other content) and put the other content below, position them on top of each other with position: absolute.
Then create a button and position it however you prefer.
Use jQuery .click() with this button (http://api.jquery.com/click/) to hide and show your view block. One possible solution is that on click, you examine if the view block has a "hidden" CSS class (for example). If it has "hidden" on click, you remove the class with .removeClass("hidden"), if it doesn't have the class, you add it with .addClass("hidden").
CSS styling should be like this: .hidden{ display: none; }
