Hey Jeffrey, Of course there’s nothing wrong with a modal window. I’m guessing that a sheet is a kind of modal window.
I guess I’m seeing window behavior (placement and type) that differs depending upon OS. I like the way sheets work but they are not native to windows as far as I can tell. Initially I wanted to emulate the same window behavior on both OS’s. But I think I can’t using native 4D code. Thus it led me to the question to see if other developers might have wrestled with the issue and had iras. "To be or not to be modal" is not the question. <smile> Thanks, John... > What's wrong with a normal movable modal dialog box? > On Nov 7, 2016, at 6:09 PM, truegold <[email protected]> wrote: > > Not so on windows! > > Since I’d like my apps to look similar on both OSX and Windows I’m guessing I > will have to consider a different approach to window management. ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:[email protected] **********************************************************************
