VtMessageDialog(1vtcl)
VtMessageDialog --
create message dialog, return widget name
Synopsis
VtMessageDialog widgetName [options]
Description
Creates a dialog box which contains a message and
the default pushbuttons OK, Cancel and Help.
Returns the widget name of the dialog.
All the standard Dialog options are also supported.
To override the default buttons, the options
-ok, -cancel, and -help can be used to specify
which buttons go in the dialog. If any one of
these options is used then it is assumed that only
buttons which have been individually specified or
referenced via either a label or a callback option will
be put in the dialog.
If the user chooses either the OK or Cancel button,
the dialog is automatically popped down and destroyed.
The -autoHide and -autoDestroy options
can be used to override this default behavior.
For example:
set msg [VtMessageDialog $but.msg -message "Hi there!" -ok]
VtShow $msg
Options
-message string (CSG)-
Sets the text of the message. Use ``\n'' to separate lines.
Return values
If VtMessageDialog fails,
it returns one of the following error messages:
NO_BUTTON-
named widget button does not exist
Standard errors-
