31 A dialog box is a window with a title bar and sometimes a system menu,
32 which can be moved around the screen. It can contain controls and other
33 windows and is often used to allow the user to make some choice or to
34 answer a question.
35
36 Dialogs can be made scrollable, automatically, for computers with low
37 resolution screens: please see @ref overview_dialog_autoscrolling for
38 further details.
39
40 Dialogs usually contains either a single button allowing to close the
41 dialog or two buttons, one accepting the changes and the other one
42 discarding them (such button, if present, is automatically activated if the
43 user presses the "Esc" key). By default, buttons with the standard wxID_OK
44 and wxID_CANCEL identifiers behave as expected. Starting with wxWidgets 2.7
45 it is also possible to use a button with a different identifier instead,
46 see SetAffirmativeId() and SetEscapeId().
47
48 Also notice that the CreateButtonSizer() should be used to create the
49 buttons appropriate for the current platform and positioned correctly
50 (including their order which is platform-dependent).
51
52 @section dialog_modal Modal and Modeless
53
54 There are two kinds of dialog, modal and modeless. A modal dialog blocks
55 program flow and user input on other windows until it is dismissed, whereas
56 a modeless dialog behaves more like a frame in that program flow continues,
57 and input in other windows is still possible. To show a modal dialog you
58 should use the ShowModal() method while to show a dialog modelessly you
59 simply use Show(), just as with frames.
60
61 Note that the modal dialog is one of the very few examples of
62 wxWindow-derived objects which may be created on the stack and not on the
63 heap. In other words, while most windows would be created like this:
64
65 @code
66 void AskUser()
67 {
68 MyAskDialog *dlg = new MyAskDialog(...);
69 if ( dlg->ShowModal() == wxID_OK )
70 // ...
71 //else: dialog was cancelled or some another button pressed
72
73 dlg->Destroy();
74 }
75 @endcode
76
77 You can achieve the same result with dialogs by using simpler code:
78
79 @code
80 void AskUser()
81 {
82 MyAskDialog dlg(...);
83 if ( dlg.ShowModal() == wxID_OK )
84 // ...
85
86 // no need to call Destroy() here
87 }
88 @endcode
89
90 An application can define a wxCloseEvent handler for the dialog to respond
91 to system close events.

8c6791e4 94 @style{wxCAPTION}
23324ae1 95 Puts a caption on the dialog box.
8c6791e4 96 @style{wxDEFAULT_DIALOG_STYLE}
23324ae1 97 Equivalent to a combination of wxCAPTION, wxCLOSE_BOX and
1db8f1dc 98 wxSYSTEM_MENU (the last one is not used under Unix).
8c6791e4 99 @style{wxRESIZE_BORDER}
d13b34d3 100 Display a resizable frame around the window.
8c6791e4 101 @style{wxSYSTEM_MENU}
23324ae1 102 Display a system menu.
8c6791e4 103 @style{wxCLOSE_BOX}
23324ae1 104 Displays a close box on the frame.
8c6791e4 105 @style{wxMAXIMIZE_BOX}
23324ae1 106 Displays a maximize box on the dialog.
8c6791e4 107 @style{wxMINIMIZE_BOX}
23324ae1 108 Displays a minimize box on the dialog.
8c6791e4 109 @style{wxTHICK_FRAME}
23324ae1 110 Display a thick frame around the window.
8c6791e4 111 @style{wxSTAY_ON_TOP}
23324ae1 112 The dialog stays on top of all other windows.
8c6791e4 113 @style{wxNO_3D}
06a5213d
VZ
114 This style is obsolete and doesn't do anything any more, don't use
115 it in any new code.
8c6791e4 116 @style{wxDIALOG_NO_PARENT}
23324ae1 117 By default, a dialog created with a @NULL parent window will be
1db8f1dc
BP
118 given the @ref wxApp::GetTopWindow() "application's top level window"
119 as parent. Use this style to prevent this from happening and create
120 an orphan dialog. This is not recommended for modal dialogs.
8c6791e4 121 @style{wxDIALOG_EX_CONTEXTHELP}
23324ae1
FM
122 Under Windows, puts a query button on the caption. When pressed,
123 Windows will go into a context-sensitive help mode and wxWidgets
3a194bda 124 will send a @c wxEVT_HELP event if the user clicked on an application
23324ae1 125 window. Note that this is an extended style and must be set by
1db8f1dc 126 calling SetExtraStyle() before Create is called (two-step
23324ae1 127 construction).
8c6791e4 128 @style{wxDIALOG_EX_METAL}
23324ae1
FM
129 On Mac OS X, frames with this style will be shown with a metallic
130 look. This is an extra style.

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

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

145 @event{EVT_INIT_DIALOG(func)}
