[maemo-developers] hildon.StackableWindow and blocking windows

[From: Max Usachev]

Hi!
I want to use StackableWindow in my program like dialogs, but dialogs is not
suitable for me, because I want to have different application menus in every
dialog, so, I decided to use StackableWindow. But the problem is that
showing new window (creating it and putting on the top of the stack) doesn't
blocks the code, which call window creation. Is it possible to use
StackableWindow alike dialogs concept?

There is small example: (now I see print 'after destroying window' after
showing new window, that is wrong. It should be showed after window
destroying).

import gtk
import hildon

class BlockedWindow:
    def __init__(self, parent):
        win = hildon.StackableWindow()
        win.set_title('Modal window')
        win.set_modal(True)
        win.set_transient_for(parent)
        label = gtk.Label("This is a subview")
        vbox = gtk.VBox()
        vbox.pack_start(label)
        win.add(vbox)
        self.win = win

    def activate(self):
        self.win.show_all()


def show_new_window(widget, parent):
    print 'before showing blocked window'
    win = BlockedWindow(parent)
    win.activate() # like dialog.run()
    print 'after destroying window'


def main():
    program = hildon.Program.get_instance()
    win = hildon.StackableWindow()
    win.set_title("Main window")
    button = gtk.Button("Go to subview")
    win.add(button)
    button.connect("clicked", show_new_window, win)
    win.connect("destroy", gtk.main_quit, None)

    win.show_all()
    gtk.main()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()


Br, Max.
