From: Nicholas Clark Date: 21:00 on 22 Jun 2006 Subject: modal dialogue boxes So M$ Outlook has just thrilled me with 4 levels of modal dialogue box crack. I can move the top one about the screen. What's wrong with the idea of me moving any of the previous ones around then? Maybe I want to see what's in the one 2 down without hitting cancel twice. Oh, and if I hit OK in the sub-sub-sub dialogue, but cancel in the next level up, does that cancel the effects of OK? Yes/No/Shrug_it_depends_but_you_need_to_check_the_source? Meanwhile, competition. I'm sure that 4 isn't the largest stack you can get. Which software provides the ability to produce the most hatefully deep stack of modal dialogue boxes, and by what contrived route through the options? Nicholas Clark
