Creo Toolkit - Keep the UI Dialog Open

[PARTHIBAN_K]

How to keep the Creo Toolkit UI Dialog at Open state until the user manually closes it.

At present my dialog disappears automatically when I am opening other dialog operations

[Ketan_Lalcheta]

I donot think that is possible with Toolkit. I tried to create MFC project to overcome this limitation, but could not get success for project creation.

Do let me know please if you get any useful option on this

Hi I didn't tried with MFC, but I developed win32 Application. Since it asynchronous you won't get this problem.

The problem I am facing only with synchronous applications.

[Ketan_Lalcheta]

Correct. Issue is related to synchronous mode only. MFC does not ensure that application is asynchronous ONLY.

Hi klalcheta,

you need to change your dialog mode. You can do that inside of the resource file or with a ProUIDialogDialogstyleSet(). Just change it to Modeless 🙂 You find more about this inside the Helpfiles.

Hi @Eike_Hauptmann

I have tried ProUIDialogDialogstyleSet() to

PROUIDIALOGSTYLE_MODELESS → It not showing my dialog

PROUIDIALOGSTYLE_PARENT_MODAL  → It's alway keeps open but I unable to zoom or rotate the model inside 
the CREO

Do you've any idea with PARENT_MODEL allows zoom and rotate the model 

Thanks in advance

Use the modeless thing

After your ProUIDialogActivate() Just remove the ProUIDialogDestroy command.

You need to do it on the side where you do the Exit ... .

So a modeless Dialog works not the same way as a std. dialog.

Parent_Modal blocks the parent dialog.

Modeless don't block it. So use it. 🙂
