Android Question Modal Forms like windows modal forms

[Eduardo Funabashi]

Hello,
In my program I need to execute others activities / layouts to the user select some items and then continue the program.
See example:
code ......
code .......
' here I need to show to the user another layout to select an item
If REG_PEGA_PREPARO = 1 Then
StartActivity("Pega_Preparo") ' layout to the user select an item
End If

code ......
code .......

' here I need to show the user another layout to select another item
If REG_PEGA_PESO = 1 Then
StartActivity("Pega_Peso") ' layout to the user select another item
End If

code ......
code .......
' then with de data selected by the user, program continues...

My problem is that when I execute StartActivity("Pega_Preparo"), code continues till end of the Sub.
But I need code to wait for StartActivity("Pega_Preparo") be closed to program continues.

How to do this job ?

Regards

You will have to "think" like Android and not like Windows, each activity is a separate process, so you have to adapt your code to that.

Any ideas to achieve this task ?

I think you should start new activity module than once user input back to main activity. Im still new to programming. Try to do more research or ask Erel. He knows better.
Take care

As NJDude already said, you need to switch from top down programing to event driven programing.
Depending on what data the user must enter the principle might be different.
You should explain more in detail your problem to get concrete advices.

Hi, I would like to ask how to make a floating form same the attached picture. which the previous form is visible, it's like a modal form in windows applications.

one possibility

    Dim options As List = Array("Red", "Green", "Blue")
    InputListAsync(options, "Select Color", 0, False)
    Wait For InputList_Result (Index As Int)
    If Index <> DialogResponse.CANCEL Then
        Log("Selected color: " & options.Get(Index))
    End If
