Information
-
Dialog modules are auxiliary modules which work similar to dialog messages. However, they are structured like actual modules and allow for more complex actions and selection operations than dialog messages. For further information, see the Introduction & Program Operation help area.
-
Dialog modules are customized like regular modules and are turned into dialog modules by setting Class = 12.
Procedure
-
Customize a module in the Modules module.
-
Set the Class parameter to 12.
-
Define the following parameters, with which you can control the display of the dialog module, in the Other Module Parameters module:
-
Show title bar: Defines whether the dialog module is displayed with or without title bar.
-
Dialog can be moved: Defines whether the dialog module can be moved using the mouse. This parameter can only be activated if Show title bar is activated.
-
Click outside → Close : Defines whether the dialog module is closed when clicking outside the dialog module. This parameter can only be activated if Show title bar is activated.
-
Button x (close) : Defines, whether the x for closing is displayed in the title bar.
-
-
Dialog position : Defines the positioning of the dialog module.
-

Via the open_dialog_module() Python function, each module can be opened as a dialog module.
