- Hi,
-
- I'm implementing a hot key by patching JGNEFilter and looking for the
- appropriate key as the events flow by. This works fine and dandy.
- The problem is that the hot key is supposed to open up my DA and the
- way it works now is that it'll open up the DA on top of almost
- anything!
-
- This is bad new cus you don't want a DA poping up on top of, say, a
- file selection box, or any other modal dialog for that matter.
-
- THE QUESTIONS: how can I tell if a modal dialog box is open so as to
- temporarily disable the hotkey? Are there any other situations that
- might cause problems where I should also disable it?
-
- Perhaps a hot-key would better be implemented in some other way?
-
- thanks in advance -eeb
