- REGARDING Controlling non-modal dialogs
- REGARDING Controlling non-modal dialogs
- For a project we are working on we need to control other appliactions from
- within MCL. One thing we haven't been able to solve is handling NON-modal
- dialogs. One solution that would work for us is some function that could be
- called with a character, corresponding to the first char of the name of a
- dialog-item, eg calling (PRESS-ITEM #/C) to press a button named "Cancel".
- (Note that this function should find the handler to the dialog itself) Has
- anyone done any work to solve this. Anything would be of great help.
- Thanks,
