A dialog box is a window with a title bar and sometimes a system menu, which
can be moved around the screen. It can contain controls and other windows and

+\wxheading{Dialog Buttons}
+
+The dialog usually contains either a single button allowing to close the
+dialog or two buttons, one accepting the changes and the other one discarding
+them (such button, if present, is automatically activated if the user presses
+the \texttt{"Esc"} key). By default, buttons with the standard \texttt{wxID\_OK}
+and \texttt{wxID\_CANCEL} identifiers behave as expected. Starting with
+wxWidgets 2.7 it is also possible to use a button with a different identifier
+instead, see \helpref{SetAffirmativeId}{wxdialogsetaffirmativeid} and
+\helpref{SetEscapeId}{wxdialogsetescapeid}.
+
+Also notice that the \helpref{CreateButtonSizer()}{wxdialogcreatebuttonsizer}
+should be used to create the buttons appropriate for the current platform and
+positioned correctly (including their order which is platform-dependent).

There are two kinds of dialog -- {\it modal}\ and {\it modeless}. A modal dialog
blocks program flow and user input on other windows until it is dismissed,

-of the following flags: wxOK, wxCANCEL, wxYES, wxNO, wxHELP, wxNO\_DEFAULT.

+This function uses \helpref{CreateStdDialogButtonSizer}{wxdialogcreatestddialogbuttonsizer}
+internally for most platforms but doesn't create the sizer at all for the
+platforms with hardware buttons (such as smartphones) for which it sets up the

+
+Please notice that just like CreateButtonSizer() this function may return \NULL
