Hi Darryl! Thanx for the quick response! A)Yes I am using a QDialog, but not standard OK/Cancel Buttonset. But I also tried this out. I tried the accepted/recected slots and the methods quit() and close(). In every case it closes down the whole application instead of only the dialog window. Theres also no error message, it regularly closes the whole programm. That really sucks.
B)The setModal() function I also tried out but it does nothing. The application I started the dialog from doens't care about. But as soon as I try working in the application with my dialog opened it crashes. Thats really bad, because like this, the dialog I've written for the last two weeks is completely useless. :-( greets, andy Darryl Wallace wrote: > > I'm assuming you're using a QDialog. > > A)If it's a standard dialog (with OK/Cancel) then I usually use the > accept()/reject() slots on the dialog.
