A Dialog is a top-level window with a title and a border
that is typically used to take some form of input from the user.
The size of the dialog includes any area designated for the
border. The dimensions of the border area can be obtained
using the getInsets
method, however, since
these dimensions are platform-dependent, a valid insets
value cannot be obtained until the dialog is made displayable
by either calling pack
or show
.
Since the border area is included in the overall size of the
dialog, the border effectively obscures a portion of the dialog,
constraining the area available for rendering and/or displaying
subcomponents to the rectangle which has an upper-left corner
location of (insets.left, insets.top)
, and has a size of
width - (insets.left + insets.right)
by
height - (insets.top + insets.bottom)
.
The default layout for a dialog is BorderLayout
.
A dialog may have its native decorations (i.e. Frame & Titlebar) turned off
with setUndecorated
. This can only be done while the dialog
is not displayable
.
A dialog must have either a frame or another dialog defined as its owner when it's constructed. When the owner window of a visible dialog is minimized, the dialog will automatically be hidden from the user. When the owner window is subsequently restored, the dialog is made visible to the user again.
In a multi-screen environment, you can create a Dialog
on a different screen device than its owner. See Frame
for
more information.
A dialog can be either modeless (the default) or modal. A modal dialog is one which blocks input to all other toplevel windows in the application, except for any windows created with the dialog as their owner.
Dialogs are capable of generating the following
WindowEvents
:
WindowOpened
, WindowClosing
,
WindowClosed
, WindowActivated
,
WindowDeactivated
, WindowGainedFocus
,
WindowLostFocus
.

If the dialog is modal and is not already visible, this call will
not return until the dialog is hidden by calling hide
or
dispose
. It is permissible to show modal dialogs from
the event dispatching thread because the toolkit will ensure that
another event pump runs while the one which invoked this method
is blocked.
