22 A dialog box is a window with a title bar and sometimes a system menu,
23 which can be moved around the screen. It can contain controls and other
24 windows and is often used to allow the user to make some choice or to
25 answer a question.
26
27 Dialogs can be made scrollable, automatically, for computers with low
28 resolution screens: please see @ref overview_dialog_autoscrolling for
29 further details.
30
31 Dialogs usually contains either a single button allowing to close the
32 dialog or two buttons, one accepting the changes and the other one
33 discarding them (such button, if present, is automatically activated if the
34 user presses the "Esc" key). By default, buttons with the standard wxID_OK
35 and wxID_CANCEL identifiers behave as expected. Starting with wxWidgets 2.7
36 it is also possible to use a button with a different identifier instead,
37 see SetAffirmativeId() and SetEscapeId().
38
39 Also notice that the CreateButtonSizer() should be used to create the
40 buttons appropriate for the current platform and positioned correctly
41 (including their order which is platform-dependent).
42
43 @section dialog_modal Modal and Modeless
44
45 There are two kinds of dialog, modal and modeless. A modal dialog blocks
46 program flow and user input on other windows until it is dismissed, whereas
47 a modeless dialog behaves more like a frame in that program flow continues,
48 and input in other windows is still possible. To show a modal dialog you
49 should use the ShowModal() method while to show a dialog modelessly you
50 simply use Show(), just as with frames.
51
52 Note that the modal dialog is one of the very few examples of
53 wxWindow-derived objects which may be created on the stack and not on the
54 heap. In other words, while most windows would be created like this:
55
56 @code
57 void AskUser()
58 {
59 MyAskDialog *dlg = new MyAskDialog(...);
60 if ( dlg->ShowModal() == wxID_OK )
61 // ...
62 //else: dialog was cancelled or some another button pressed
63
64 dlg->Destroy();
65 }
66 @endcode
67
68 You can achieve the same result with dialogs by using simpler code:
69
70 @code
71 void AskUser()
72 {
73 MyAskDialog dlg(...);
74 if ( dlg.ShowModal() == wxID_OK )
75 // ...
76
77 // no need to call Destroy() here
78 }
79 @endcode
80
81 An application can define a wxCloseEvent handler for the dialog to respond
82 to system close events.

8c6791e4 87 @style{wxDEFAULT_DIALOG_STYLE}
23324ae1 88 Equivalent to a combination of wxCAPTION, wxCLOSE_BOX and
1db8f1dc 89 wxSYSTEM_MENU (the last one is not used under Unix).
8c6791e4 90 @style{wxRESIZE_BORDER}
23324ae1 91 Display a resizeable frame around the window.
8c6791e4 92 @style{wxSYSTEM_MENU}
23324ae1 93 Display a system menu.
8c6791e4 94 @style{wxCLOSE_BOX}
23324ae1 95 Displays a close box on the frame.
8c6791e4 96 @style{wxMAXIMIZE_BOX}
23324ae1 97 Displays a maximize box on the dialog.
8c6791e4 98 @style{wxMINIMIZE_BOX}
23324ae1 99 Displays a minimize box on the dialog.
8c6791e4 100 @style{wxTHICK_FRAME}
23324ae1 101 Display a thick frame around the window.
8c6791e4 102 @style{wxSTAY_ON_TOP}
23324ae1 103 The dialog stays on top of all other windows.
8c6791e4 104 @style{wxNO_3D}
23324ae1
FM
105 Under Windows, specifies that the child controls should not have 3D
106 borders unless specified in the control.
8c6791e4 107 @style{wxDIALOG_NO_PARENT}
23324ae1 108 By default, a dialog created with a @NULL parent window will be
1db8f1dc
BP
109 given the @ref wxApp::GetTopWindow() "application's top level window"
110 as parent. Use this style to prevent this from happening and create
111 an orphan dialog. This is not recommended for modal dialogs.
8c6791e4 112 @style{wxDIALOG_EX_CONTEXTHELP}
23324ae1
FM
113 Under Windows, puts a query button on the caption. When pressed,
114 Windows will go into a context-sensitive help mode and wxWidgets
115 will send a wxEVT_HELP event if the user clicked on an application
116 window. Note that this is an extended style and must be set by
1db8f1dc 117 calling SetExtraStyle() before Create is called (two-step
23324ae1 118 construction).
8c6791e4 119 @style{wxDIALOG_EX_METAL}
23324ae1
FM
120 On Mac OS X, frames with this style will be shown with a metallic
121 look. This is an extra style.

124 Under Unix or Linux, MWM (the Motif Window Manager) or other window
125 managers recognizing the MHM hints should be running for any of these
126 styles to have an effect.

130 @event{EVT_CLOSE(func)}
131 The dialog is being closed by the user or programmatically (see wxWindow::Close).
132 The user may generate this event clicking the close button
133 (typically the 'X' on the top-right of the title bar) if it's present
134 (see the @c wxCLOSE_BOX style) or by clicking a button with the
135 @c wxID_CANCEL or @c wxID_OK ids.
