Enum Class NativeWindow.PopupKind

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<NativeWindow.PopupKind>
limn.backend.NativeWindow.PopupKind
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<NativeWindow.PopupKind>, Constable
Enclosing interface:
NativeWindow
public static enum NativeWindow.PopupKind extends Enum<NativeWindow.PopupKind>
What a registered child window is, which decides whether a modal over the owner leaves it usable.

Both kinds close and move with the owner; they differ only under an in-scene modal, which exempts its host so the host can keep drawing its own content outside its frame. Without this distinction that exemption reaches anything the host registered, and a non-modal dialog stayed clickable underneath a modal, where a native modal would have frozen it, and where the application had every reason to expect it frozen.

  • Enum Constant Details

    • TRANSIENT

      public static final NativeWindow.PopupKind TRANSIENT
      The owner's own content, drawn outside its frame because the OS gives it no other way: a dropdown's list, a menu cascade, a tooltip. It stays usable under an in-scene modal whose host is this window, because it is that host.

    • OWNED_WINDOW

      public static final NativeWindow.PopupKind OWNED_WINDOW
      A window in its own right that happens to be owned for lifetime and movement: a non-modal dialog, a floating palette. A modal over the owner blocks it like any other window.
