Dialogs
This section includes the three Mojo dialog APIs:
Error dialog
Alert dialog
Custom dialog
Each entry includes a brief description, repeating some of the information from Chapter 4, followed by an enumeration of the arguments. Dialogs are accessed through a direct API so the format for this entry will be structured as an API entry.
Mojo.Controller.errorDialog()
This API is used to post error messages in a modal dialog box with a fixed title of “Error,” a customizable message, and a confirmation button. The Error dialog must be used only with errors, since you can’t change the title.
Arguments | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
message | String | Displayed message in a modal dialog |
window | Element | Optional argument to specify the window to post the alert within; required in multistage applications |
Mojo.Controller.SceneController.showAlertDialog()
You can display a short message using an Alert dialog, with one or more HTML buttons presenting the selection options. This is the best option if you have either a nonerror message for the user or want to present options in the form of button selections.
Arguments | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
onChoose | Function | Handler called when user makes a choice and the dialog is dismissed |
message | String | Displayed message in a modal dialog |
title | String | Title of the dialog box |
preventCancel | Boolean | If true, back gesture or other alerts will not cancel the dialog box |
choices | Array | Array of button descriptions; each entry is required to be: {label: 'string', value: value, type: 'string', allowHTMLMessage: boolean} ... |
