Here at MCC one of our programmers created
a new kind of dialog that does not allow any
other interactors to receive events while it
is "popped up".  We call this a Modal Dialog.

What we had to do was to take over the run
operation during display of the MD and refuse
to pass on any events occurring outside the
bounds of the local scene to their targets.

Modal Dialogs seem to be a standard part of
a GUI so I wonder how is it that all of you other
people out there accomplish this task?

Ours looks rather kludgey since it requires 
finding out what the boundary of the dialog box
is and then checking every event to see if it 
occurred within this box.

on an unrelated note.....

Does IV 3.0 work with g++ yet?  
(I know it's an old and tired question but
 I REALLY want to use IBuild and my only c++
 compiler is g++).

Thanks.
