Hi, the issue I want to bring up is that is seems that GTK does _only_ allow modal dialogs when the parent window can be exposed to the dialog creating instance which then can set it as an appropriate field within its created dialog. Anyway the problem arises as to that it would require for a lot of functions to carry this field (parent window pointer) as a parameter in order to pass it as an instance that might want to create such a (modal) dialog. Therefore, we might want to _really_ consider the option of having the GUI create the TsControls (which would be realized over an interface that the plugin manager sets appropriately once loading a plugin and which over this interface can request controls from the GUI). Furthermore, such a redesign would lead to a cleaner cut and dependability of the controls. I demand a discussion! ;-) Greetings Piotr |
