[Hwgui-developers] Nomodal dialogs in GTK version

It's ok when modal is called from modal.

The problem appears when a nomodal dialog is called from modal. 
Moreover, if there is nomodal dialog already, it is blocked after a 
modal one is created. Probably, it's a GTK feature and I don't sure that 
this behaviour can be changed.

So, you need to do your Genehelp as a modal dialog or as a separate app.

Humm ... I'm not sure that your explanation is good, as now, with same
source, it works ...

GeneTools : modal window
     =>  Calendar : modal dialog (previously modal window)
           => GeneHelp : nomodal Window

1) Perhaps it ought not to work if Calendar was a window, and not a dialog
2) With same code it didn't work, so I think your last update as solves
something.

I'll try now a solution to set the rubrique when the tutor is already
opened.
It will be easier as I can have the tutor as an include function.

Other question:
Where is coded in Makefile* the harbour command ?
I want to add -ql option to avoid having lines in log file

Thanks

Oouupss ...

I opened my old version with external tutor ...

In fact, you're right, it not ok :(

I'll have a try with the shared file to pass the rubrique to the already
opened tutor.

   What is nomodal window and modal window, how they are created ?

   The changes I did, are related to the standard dialogs ( select file, 
select font ) only.

   HB_FLAGS = -d__LINUX__

should be changes to

   HB_FLAGS = -d__LINUX__ -ql
