SIMPOL Documentation

A dialog window is very similar to a main window, but with less features. It cannot have a tool bar, menu, or status bar. Also, dialog windows are in front of their parent window. The wxdialogtype in SIMPOL can be either modal or non-modal. Modal means that the dialog must be dealt with and dismissed before you can continue or click on the parent window. A non-modal dialog stays in front of the parent window, but the user can still click on the parent window. For examples of using wxdialog, see the section called “Working with Dialogs”.
