I need to open a dialog with 'DLG_TYPE_MODAL' to prevent the user from making changes while it is open.
However, it seems many things don't work with this type: pop-up tooltips, button hover-color changes, and timers are a few.Is there some way to make a timer work with a 'DLG_TYPE_MODAL' ?
Also, there doesn't seem to be an option with 'DLG_TYPE_ASYNC' to make it not sizable.
Is that correct?Thanks,
Chris

In which context are you? A script or a plugin?

Is that correct?Yes there's no way to make an asynchronous dialog not sizable.

Yannick,
It is a Python plugin, and the timer doesn't work with modal. -

Hi Chris,
Could you post some code? I can't reproduce this behavior.

I am having some issues getting tooltips to work with modal dialogs as well.
The code for the bitmap button:
bc = c4d.BaseContainer()
helpText = "<b>BOLD HEADER</b>\nInfo text here."
bc.SetString(c4d.BITMAPBUTTON_TOOLTIP, helpText)
dir, file = os.path.split(__file__) ## GET THE PLUGIN DIRECTORY
h = os.path.join(dir, "res/icons", "ButtonImage.png") ## GET THE IMAGE LOCATION
bc.SetBool(c4d.BITMAPBUTTON_BUTTON, True)
bc.SetFilename(BUTTON, h)
self.myButton = self.AddCustomGui(BUTTON, c4d.CUSTOMGUI_BITMAPBUTTON, "Bitmap Button", c4d.BFH_CENTER | c4d.BFV_CENTER, 10, 1, bc)
self.myButton.SetImage(h) -

Hi Marc,
I confirm tooltips doesn't work inside modal dialogs. I'll check if this is a limitation or a bug.
