how to disable everything except one window ?

Hi,

I need to display alert windows, (asking for confirmation, ok or cancel), and I would like to disable everything behind it, to prevent the user to continue using the gui until he answer the question.
So the idea is to freeze everything, except one window.

Is there a simple way to do that ?

Thanks !
T.

Create fullscreen widget without skin or with simple gray color to fade everything behind. Use some high layer to make sure this widget is on top and catch mouse input thus making all other widgets inaccessible.

Thanks for your answer: it's working perfectly.

Have a nice day,

There is an even better way: Use a modal widget.


MyGUI::InputManager::getInstance ().addWidgetModal (mConfirmationDialog);


If a modal widget is active, MyGUI will automatically disable all other widgets that aren't modal widgets.
