Message requester
AmiComSys uses its own message requester.
It does not block other traffic, like the usual AmigaOS one.
It is always centered.
The buttons have these shortcuts:
The right button: ESCape or the underlined character.
The left button: The underlined character.
The RETURN key will press the selected button. (select with the TAB-key).
With the TAB-key you may cycle through the alternatives.
It doesn't steal the current focus while you are using the keyboard. (costumizable
in the Window-settings.
You don't have to close a requester before you can get or send another
message.
The message text requesters also has this:
A message field and a send button. You can use these to reply, without
opening the main window. The requester will not close when you press the
Send-button or Enter in the message-field.
This requester could also include other features later.
From AmiComSys version 1.25 MUI-windows are used for the
message requester. You may choose to use the GadTools one
in the Windows-settings - "Use MUI requester". The MUI-requester is not snapshotable
by default, i.e. AmiComSys will calculate a suitable size every
time. You may change this in the Windows settings - "Snapshotable requester".
You can configure the requester at Windows settings
