Using custom Activity Dialogs in Schedule control: DialogManager
posted

Hi,

I am currently evaluating the Schedule control and noticed a problem when creating custom dialogs for it. The DialogFactory is working fine, but insufficient. My problem is that there seems to be a "DialogManager" working in the background, which is doing a bit more with the Window-object I provide than I would like to (as seen in Reflector).

- It shows the dialog non-modal (I would like a modal dialog)

- It sets the Window's owner to itself instead to the actual parent window (I want to specify the Window owner myself)

- It resizes the Window (I use a Settings class to save and restore last used window sizes, so I don't want the DialogManager to interfere)

- Plus some other actions like a focus change or a window title change that I'd rather not have.

Can you please tell me how to avoid the "magic" invoked by the DialogManager?

Best regards,

Florian
