Is there a way to temporarily turn off Pop-ups in Enterprise Portal while making a selection in a workflow?

We are using Geocortex Workflow for building out new workflows to be used in our Esri Portal asset viewer (Containing all our layers). One issue that is becoming a major headache is that when a user does something like use any tool, we've built that requires them to select a feature for the workflow to execute, with every point of inflection used to create the selecting polygon (via the Geometry Picker tool) ... We are getting the pop-up of whatever features are visible in that one current point of the selection polygon they are defining. Keep in mind if they define the polygon with 4 points, each time they define a point it causes a pop-up containing attribute information for all features that are intersected by that point. Does that make any sense?

 

We are wondering if anyone has encountered this issue, with the pop-ups from Portal making it hard to define the selection polygon because they are in the way? If so, has anyone figured out a way to temporarily shut off pop-ups while invoking the Geometry Picker in their workflows. If you have figured out how this might be done could you please share it?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

 

Please see the attached file for an example of what I'm referring to.

  My team and I resolved this. Here are the steps we took to accomplish it.

   

  1. Get Map
  2. Set Property Activity
     1. Object: =$map.map.map.infoWindow.domNode
     2. Property Name: hidden
     3. Property Value: true
  3. Form with Geometry Picker
  4. Set Property Activity
     1. Object: =$map.map.map.infoWindow.domNode
     2. Property Name: hidden
     3. Property Value: false
  5. Continue workflow

  There's a bit of an issue with the above method if the user starts the workflow and then closes rather than submit/cancel. The Set Property Activities are better suited in change events inside the form. For example: radioButtonList on change, hidden = true; geometryPicker on change, hidden = false.
