1.10.8 Example 8, A Dialogue

Here is an example that uses EZ_SetGrab to implement a dialogue box.

We create a frame with two buttons. One button is associated with a dialogue box. When pressed, it posts the dialogue and sets a grab on the dialogue.

The dialogue box contains two buttons. Yes and No. When the No button is pressed, it hides the dialogue and hence release the grab.

During the period when the dialogue is viewable, event processing for other widgets, except descendants of the dialogue, are suspended.
