Howto : Disable my entire window while an other is active ?

[oragonefreet]

Hello every one !

(i apologize for my english which is not perfect, i guess =^.^=)

When i use tk_chooseDirectory proc, the main window "." can't be used. Button not clickable, neither entries, nothing. But "state" options are not set as "disabled".

I'd like to have to same on the second window i created myself. It's a connection window which asks username and password to the user. And main window widgets may not be used while this little window is open.

I could set as "disabled" all "state" i have but it's not really pretty, and the effect is not the same as in the tk_chooseDirectory proc...

Or maybe i could find the sources of tk_chooseDirectory ? where ?

Thank You,
Oragon Efreet

Hi

Such windows are called modal windows. Read the "Modal dialogs" article in the Tcler's Wiki.
