NAME

       Tk::Dialog - Create modal dialog and wait for a response.

SYNOPSIS

           $dialog = $parent->Dialog(-option => value, ... );

DESCRIPTION

       This procedure is part of the Tk script library - its arguments describe a dialog box.
       After creating a dialog box, Dialog waits for the user to select one of the Buttons either
       by clicking on the Button with the mouse or by typing return to invoke the default Button
       (if any).  Then it returns the text string of the selected Button.

       While waiting for the user to respond, Dialog sets a local grab.  This prevents the user
       from interacting with the application in any way except to invoke the dialog box.  See the
       Show() method.

OPTIONS

       The following option/value pairs are supported:

       -title
           Text to appear in the window manager's title bar for the dialog.

       -text
           Message to appear in the top portion of the Dialog.

       -bitmap
           If non-empty, specifies a bitmap to display in the top portion of the Dialog, to the
           left of the text.  If this is an empty string then no bitmap is displayed in the
           Dialog.

       -default_button
           Text label string of the Button that displays the default ring.

       -buttons
           A reference to a list of Button label strings.  Each string specifies text to display
           in a Button, in order from left to right.

METHODS

       $answer = $dialog->Show(?-global?);
           This method displays the Dialog, waits for the user's response, and stores the text
           string of the selected Button in $answer.  If -global is specified a global (rather
           than local) grab is performed.

           The actual Dialog is shown using the Popup method. Any other options supplied to Show
           are passed to Popup, and can be used to position the Dialog on the screen. Please read
           Tk::Popup for details.

ADVERTISED WIDGETS

       Because Tk::Dialog is a subclass of Tk::DialogBox it inherits all the advertised
       subwidgets of its superclass: e.g. "B_button-text", where 'button-text' is a Button's
       -text value. Additionally, Tk::Dialog advertises:

       message
           The dialog's Label widget containing the message text.

       bitmap
           The dialog's Label widget containing the bitmap image.

EXAMPLE

       $dialog = $mw->Dialog(-text => 'Save File?', -bitmap => 'question', -title => 'Save File
       Dialog', -default_button => 'Yes', -buttons => [qw/Yes No Cancel/);
