non-blocking pop up-Vincent-03-09-2020
is there a way to create a non-blocking pop up inside an app, to instruct a user abaut what to do next?

Hi Vincent,
Yes this is possible. I recommend you to use Python's tkinter to do so. The code below shows 3 useful ways to implement popups. This will block the code in your app, not RoboDK. If you need to run code while your user interface is blocked you can run it on a separate thread.

Code:
if sys.version_info[0] < 3: # Python 2.X only:
import Tkinter as tk
import tkMessageBox as messagebox
else: # Python 3.x only
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox
def ShowMessage(msg, title=None):
print(msg)
if title is None:
title = msg
root = tk.Tk()
root.overrideredirect (1)
root.withdraw()
root.attributes("-topmost", True)
result = messagebox.showinfo(title, msg) #, icon='warning')#, parent=texto)
root.destroy()
return result
def ShowMessageYesNo(msg, title=None):
print(msg)
if title is None:
title = msg
root = tk.Tk()
root.overrideredirect (1)
root.withdraw()
root.attributes("-topmost", True)
result = messagebox.askyesno(title, msg) #, icon='warning')#, parent=texto)
root.destroy()
return result
def ShowMessageYesNoCancel(msg, title=None):
print(msg)
if title is None:
title = msg
root = tk.Tk()
root.overrideredirect (1)
root.withdraw()
root.attributes("-topmost", True)
result = messagebox.askyesnocancel(title, msg)#, icon='warning')#, parent=texto)
root.destroy()
return result
