I have a Delphi 2006 app that pops up a modal alert dialog when an error condition is detected. As the check for the error condition is done in an idle handler, the dialog can pop up over the top of another modal dialog if that one happens to be displayed. This can lead to a confusing situation for the user where the application main form doesn't get focus after the alert dialog is closed because these is another obscured modal dialog.
What I would like to do is postpone the alert popups while the app has any Modal dialogs open.
I tried GetLastActivePopup (MyMainWindow.Handle) but it seems to return non-zero all the time.
See TApplication.ModalLevel or the TApplication.OnModalBegin and TApplication.OnModalEnd events. Also see this question.
Just test
if not IsWindowEnabled(MyMainWindow.Handle) then
This would also take care of situtations when a non-Delphi dialog is acting modal, like in windows.MessageBox(Handle.... or a common dialog is showing (i.e. a TOpenDialog).
use AnyPopup() function
About GetLastActivePopup(). It may return value is the same as the hWnd parameter when
- The window identified by hWnd was most recently active.
- The window identified by hWnd does not own any pop-up windows.
- The window identifies by hWnd is not a top-level window, or it is owned by another window.
