dialog%

A dialog is a top-level window that is modal: while the dialog is shown, all other top-level windows in the dialog's eventspace are disabled.

• (make-object dialog% label parent width height x y style) -> dialog% object
      label : string
      parent = #f : frame% or dialog% object or #f
      width = #f : exact integer in [0, 10000] or #f
      height = #f : exact integer in [0, 10000] or #f
      x = #f : exact integer in [0, 10000] or #f
      y = #f : exact integer in [0, 10000] or #f
      style = null : list of symbols in '(no-caption resize-border)

  The label string is used as the dialog's title in its title bar. If the dialog's label is changed (see set-label ), the title bar is updated.

  The parent argument can be #f or an existing frame. Under Windows, if parent is an existing frame, the new dialog is always on top of its parent. Under Windows and X, a dialog is iconized when its parent is iconized.

  If parent is #f, then the eventspace for the new dialog is the current eventspace, as determined by current-eventspace . Otherwise, parent's eventspace is the new dialog's eventspace.

  If the width or height argument is not #f, it specifies an initial size for the dialog (assuming that it is larger than the minimum size), otherwise the minimum size is used. Under Windows and MacOS (and with some X window managers) dialogs are not resizeable.

  If the x or y argument is not #f, it specifies an initial location for the dialog. Otherwise, a location is selected automatically (tiling frames and dialogs as they are created).

  The style flags adjust the appearance of the dialog on some platforms:

  • 'no-caption -- omits the title bar for the dialog (Windows)
  • 'resize-border -- adds a resizeable border around the window (Windows) or grow box in the bottom right corner (MacOS)
