The Dialog Plug-in for Servoy provides you with a more informative and flexible alternative to the default Dialog Plug-in.

Additionally there is a method to create a password window. The window can show a login name/password and/or check password. It is an alternative to the login window from Servoy and is created for the upcoming new way to log into a Servoy solution.
The last method can create a milky white progress layer for tasks that are not too intense.

The Plug-in delivers the following methods:

• showDialog
   - Shows a dialog like you use to with the default Servoy Dialog Plug-in. However, you have 2 new options:
   - Replace the default icon with a custom icon;
   - Add an explanatory message which will show on the bottom of the dialog in a text area. The message will be hidden by default but can be clicked open by the user via a triangle in the bottom-left corner;
   - The same dialogs as with the default Plug-in are available: showDialog, showErrorDialog, showInfoDialog, showInputDialog, showQuestionDialog, showSelectDialog, showWarningDialog.
• showPasswordDialog
   - Show a password dialog with a username and/or a password and/or a check on the password
• Progress
   - After starting the progress screen the user is presented with a milky white layer on top of the Servoy window and a spinner.

• Whenever a custom icon is needed in the dialog.
• Whenever an extra field in the dialog is needed to explain the message.
• Whenever a password is needed for custom login (Servoy 3.0 with LDAPclient Plug-in).

The Dialog Plug-in should be your first choice!.
