Dialog Items General Features

To access dialog Items, go to Classes / Basic Tools / Interface Boxes / Dialog Items.

Displaying of the Dialog Items Interface

Miniview

To display the actual interface of a dialog item, apply the same procedure as for displaying a miniview.

Select a box and press m.

Appellation : Displaying and Editing the "Text" Argument
A button-box before and after the evaluation : "click" is a default text argument.
A button-box before and after the evaluation : "click" is a default text argument.

To display the message entered in the first input, evaluate the box.

To change the value of the "text" argument  :

  1. click or SHIFT click on the first input to edit it – don't forget to validate,

  2. select the box again with a click and drag : the box can't be selected with a click because it has a button interface.

  3. evaluate the box : press v.

Move and Resize

Constraints

When the miniview is activated, dialog items cannot be moved or resized with the mouse : any action would actually trigger or modify the value of the box.

Items can be moved and resized without the mouse, to a certain extent :

  1. drag the item,

  2. use the → keys – use SHIFT to go faster

Press i to restore its standard size.

Note that this last operation amounts to selecting the element(s) represented by the dialog box.

Hiding the Miniview

To move or resize the object with the mouse, hide the miniwiew :

  1. drag an item to select it without clicking on it,

  2. hide the dialog item by pressing m again.
