A dialog box is similar to a panel, in that it is a window which can
|
|
be used for placing controls, with the following exceptions:
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item A surrounding frame is implicitly created.
|
|
\item Extra functionality is automatically given to the dialog box,
|
|
such as tabbing between items (currently Windows only).
|
|
\item If the dialog box is {\it modal}, the calling program is blocked
|
|
until the dialog box is dismissed.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
Under Windows 3, modal dialogs have to be emulated using
|
|
modeless dialogs and a message loop. This is because Windows 3 expects
|
|
the contents of a modal dialog to be loaded from a resource file or
|
|
created on receipt of a dialog initialization message. This is too
|
|
restrictive for wxWidgets, where any window may be created and displayed
|
|
before its contents are created.
|
|
|
|
For a set of dialog convenience functions, including file selection, see
|
|
\rtfsp\helpref{Dialog functions}{dialogfunctions}.
|
|
|
|
See also \helpref{wxPanel}{wxpanel} and \helpref{wxWindow}{wxwindow} for inherited
|
|
member functions. Validation of data in controls is covered
|
|
in \helpref{Validator overview}{validatoroverview}.
