Hi all,
I am working on a windows based client server application with multiple forms. All forms are having custom title bars with no default title bars. There is one main form. Some forms are opened up as modal while others are opened up as modeless on this main form.
Whenever some error occurs in client server communication we show it in modal message box.
Now I ran into a case: a modal form is opened up on the main form. And some error occurs in the previous server transaction which is now displayed and opened up as a message box on the main form. But this error message box opens up behind the already exisiting modal form. Now user is unable to interact with this and any other opened form of the application. This is occurring because error message box is having the focus and it is not visible to user as it is behind the other modal window.
And as all forms are having custom title bar so user gets no idea that why application is not responding. But if default title bar would be there then they gets highlighted by default. But in custom title bar they don't get highlighted.
How can I highlight(blink) the error message box which is behind the other modal dialog or how can I open it up on the opened modal window??
Thanks!!
