10 @class wxRichMessageDialog
11
12 Extension of wxMessageDialog with additional functionality.
13
14 This class adds the possibility of using a checkbox (that is especially
15 useful for implementing the "Don't ask me again" kind of dialogs) and an
16 extra explanatory text which is initially collapsed and not shown to the
17 user but can be expanded to show more information.
18
19 Notice that currently the native dialog is used only under MSW when using
20 Vista or later Windows version. Elsewhere, or for older versions of
21 Windows, a generic implementation which is less familiar to the users is
22 used. Because of this it's recommended to use this class only if you do
23 need its extra functionality and use wxMessageDialog which does have native
24 implementation under all platforms otherwise. However if you do need to put
25 e.g. a checkbox in a dialog, you should definitely consider using this
26 class instead of using your own custom dialog because it will have much
27 better appearance at least under recent Windows versions.
28
29 To use this class, you need to create the dialog object and call
30 ShowCheckBox() and/or ShowDetailedText() to configure its contents.
31 Other than that, it is used in exactly the same way as wxMessageDialog and
32 supports all the styles supported by it. In particular, ShowModal() return
33 value is the same as for wxMessageDialog. The only difference is that you
34 need to use IsCheckBoxChecked() to examine the checkbox value if you had
35 called ShowCheckBox().
36
37 Here is a simple example:
38 @code
39 void MyFrame::ShowDialog()
40 {
41 if ( ... shouldn't show this dialog again ... )
42 return;
43
44 wxRichMessageDialog dlg(this, "Welcome to my wonderful program!");
45 dlg.ShowCheckBox("Don't show welcome dialog again");
46 dlg.ShowModal(); // return value ignored as we have "Ok" only anyhow
47
48 if ( dlg.IsCheckBoxChecked() )
49 ... make sure we won't show it again the next time ...
50 }
