Reply to: Attribute inspector as modal dialog
June 14, 2010 at 7:31 pmIn order for you to provide your users with a truly modal dialog you would need to implement a solution as an XFT form I think. It sounds like you want something to pop up and then force the user to fill in certain values before continuing. This is a very perfect use case for XFT.
It is possible to float the Attribute Inspector and then have it appear and hide itself by pressing Shift+F6, but this is not modal as the Attribute Inspector itself is not a true dialog nor is it modal (I guess you can call it a docking window in that sense).
