Dialog Boxes

Dialog Boxes

---

Dialog boxes are temporary windows that applications use to request your attention or input. Dialog boxes usually don't have a resizable border (although File Open /Save Dialogs do), and they almost always have OK, Cancel, and Apply buttons . Dialog boxes are usually "modal," which means that when they're open, you can't use any other part of the owning application until they're closed. See " Windows ", later in this chapter, for more information.
