MessageBox and Dialog

Postby Arthur » Wed Jul 06, 2016 5:53 pm

I have a custom Dialog that has a radial button. The radial button calls a variable to display a MessageBox after clicking on Next.

The MessageBox displays correctly, but the Dialog is still in view. How can I remove the Dialog box and just show the MessageBox. I added a Hide Dialog right before the MessageBox, but did not work.

I've attached the custom Dialog.

Code: Select all

~InstallAware Clipboard Data~

Dear Arthur,

the Hide Dialog command can be only used with Modeless Dialogs.

The one you use is a Modal Dialog and this remains active, until another Dialog gets displayed or if the process itself terminates.
This happens because the last active Modal Dialog becomes the main Windows of the running process.

Hope this helps you.
