That looks very nice but I got the following error during compilation:

B4J version 2.80

Any idea what's wrong here ?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Chris,

thanks for testing.

To compile this library you need at least Java 1.8.0_40 version as mentioned in the thread.
Your version is 1.8.0_25 as shown in the error message. Pls check again after upgrading.

Good Luck

Hi rwblinn,

a small wish for the TextInputDialog:

If I close the dialog (via 'X') or I press Cancel, the dialog always returns a blank string "".
So I can't make out, if the user aborted the input or really entered 'nothing'.

Is it possible to return 'Null' if the user used Cancel or the close function (via 'X')?
I want to show an error message only when the user really enters 'nothing' and not wehan he aborted the input.

Maybe you can add a TextInputDialog3 or something like that so the current users of this great lib don't have to change anything in their current programs.

Thanks in advance,
speeci48

Update 20150512 - Post #1 lists all the methods.
NEW: TextInputDialog3 - handle user cancel by returning null

rwblinn · May 12, 2015

Hi specci48,

thanks for your request and the flowers

.
Pls find update of the library in Post #1. Let me know if this suits your requirement.
Created using B4J 3.0 beta 5.

Hi rwblinn,

sorry for the delay of my answer.
TextInputDialog3 works really fine for me.

Thank you very much.

Some small hint to all who want to use this:

B4X:

Dim a As String = Null
If a = Null Then
    Log("This doesn't work...")
End If
If a.EqualsIgnoreCase(Null) Then
    Log("This works fine!")
End If

So you have to use EqualsIgnoreCase instead of = to test for the result of the dialog.

Hi, how does one put a border around the dialogs? mine does not show a border, thus cannot be differentiated clearly from my UI? Can you please advise?

rwblinn · Aug 26, 2015

Hi,

this library makes use of the standard JavaFX dialogs Alert etc.. I have not found a way (yet) to change the standard bordercolors of these dialogs.

Thanks for bringing up.

rwblinn · Aug 28, 2015

Update 20150828 - Post #1 lists all the methods.
NEW: ToastMessageDialog

Usage - The message can contain HTML Tags (but is optional).

B4X:

Sub Process_Globals
    Private Dlg As Dialogs8
End Sub

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("Main")
    MainForm.Show
    Dlg.Initialize
    Dlg.ToastMessage("<html><h1>Welcome</h1>Many Thanks for using jRLDialogs8</html>", 3000)
End Sub

Hi Douglas,

have added a ToastMessage - see Post#1 and #17.

An example is included in the zip file - Example3.

Hi rwblinn,

Thank you for this amazing library!

Is it possible to set and/or add the parent form or the dialog's X and Y location? I have three monitors. I run the main form on the 2nd monitor but the dialogs appear on the 1st or main screen. Is there a workaround for this?

Thank you in advance.
