Chapter 9. Writing Custom Dialogs

Sooner or later, you will have to create your own dialogs, whether simple ones with only a few buttons and some text or highly complex dialogs with notebook controls, multiple panels, custom controls, context-sensitive help, and so on. In this chapter, we cover the principles of creating custom dialogs and transferring data between C++ variables and the controls. We also describe the wxWidgets resource system, which enables you to load dialogs and other user interface elements from XML files.
