Can the Default Download Popup Be Customized for Phone Web Responsive in Mendix?

0
Hello Mendix Community,I was able to localize the default Download File popup, but I could not customize its design or responsive layout to match the application UI.On mobile, the first download opens in a new tab. When the user returns and downloads another file, no new tab or confirmation appears, making it unclear whether the file was downloaded successfully.Can the default download popup and this mobile behaviour be customized in Mendix? If not, what is the recommended solution for providing clear feedback when downloading multiple files?Thank you.

The default Download File popup is part of the Mendix platform/widget behavior, so its design and responsive layout have limited customization options.

For the mobile behavior, opening the file in a new tab is generally handled by the browser/OS. Mendix cannot reliably control whether a new tab or confirmation is shown for subsequent downloads.

If you need a consistent UI and clear feedback for multiple downloads, the recommended approach is to implement a custom download flow instead of relying on the default popup. For example, use a custom modal/page with your own responsive design and show a success message/toast after each download is triggered. This gives you full control over the user experience across desktop and mobile.
