The controls
Home ▸ Documentation ▸ Smile ▸ Custom GUI ▸ Developing your own custom dialog ▸ The controls  
The sections below present the different kinds of controls. All controls are objects of the same class: dialog item. Two different kinds of control differ by their control kind property, an integer.

For instance, the control kind of a Push Button is 368, while it is 288 for a Static Text Box.

The sections below provide the following information for each kind of control:
  • the value of its control kind property,
  • the events that the item detects, in other terms what user's action(s) will result in a notification to a script,
  • where relevant, the information specific to that kind of control

When programming a dialog, keep in mind that the click in event is sent, not to the control targeted by the user's action, but to its container: the dialog window itself or possibly a container such as a Group Box.
