Thanks for your lights Vadim.
We actually have a document with icons, and each icon have a property
sheet with all its parameters. When I double click on the icon, it opens
a non modal property sheet (in a wxDialog). we use non modal dialogs to
be able to open several of them.
In some dialogs the user can sometimes open a file selector if he clicks
some button.
In this case the property sheet is frozen, but on windows the document
itself is still available to the user, and he could open again the same
property sheet while it is on modal loop with the file dialog, or else
open another icon property sheet.
Even if it works, it seems to me that in that case it is not the
expected behaviour, and your suggestion is exactly what we need : the
choice between parent and app modal.
In the mean time, a little comment on the docs concerning the file
selector, file dialog and dir selector could help.
Thanks a lot
