Hi,
I am having a few problems with using the TopMost property for dialogs.
The problem centers around the fact that I have a main dialog which as
a central map and at certain positions on this map I need to display
small message boxs to represent information regarding this point. These
message boxs are simple forms with a ew text fields and labels.
The problem I am having is that I need to set the TopMost property of
the forms to true if I want to see more than one message at a time.
I am creating these message forms dynamically when the user clicks the
correct positon on the main map. What happens is that after the first
message form, the second one makes the first one disappear under the
main form.
If I set the TopMost property then they all appear but when I minimise
the main form, the message dialogs remain on the desktop.
if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)
{
Point pt = new Point(e.X, e.Y);
foreach(IconDetails icon in icons)
{
Point pt1 = icon.GetLocation();
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle( pt1.X, pt1.Y, 30, 30);
if (rect.Contains(pt))
{
VMSSiteObject vmsObj =
vmsSiteObjects.GetBySCN(icon.GetDescription());
if (vmsObj != null)
{
ArrayList listOfDisp = (ArrayList)vmsObj.VMSDisplayObjects;
ArrayList disp = (ArrayList)listOfDisp[0];
int mods = disp.Count;
site = new siteDlg(vmsObj);
sz.Width = site.Size.Width - 8;
if (mods > 1)
sz.Height = site.Size.Height + ((mods-1) * 8);
else
sz.Height = site.Size.Height;
}
break;
if (site != null)
{
site.Tag = icon.GetDescription();
siteDlgs.Add(site);
site.Show();
site.Size = sz;
}
}
}
}
Is there another way I could show these forms without having to set the
TopMost property.
