Disabling windows close button in dialog

Hi,
I am using Jdev 10.1.3.x(10g)
I am opening a dialog pop up for a functionality. What i want is to force user to use cancel button provided inside dialog to come out of it and want user to not to use windows cance X button.
Is there any way by which i can hide the title bar or disable the close button or on click of widow close i actually click on cancel button throgh java script?
Main concern is i am passing some data from parent to dialog throgh process scope and i want to clear it on cancel. In my application there are many popup dialog which may lead to memeory issue so i seek solution to clear this data once it is not desired any more.
Also i tried Request object to pass the data but in popup it is not recognised.
Suggestion in any direction will be helpful.
Regards,
Kevin Chheda

Hi,
answering this question for 10.1.3 since 11g is different and provides a af:dialog component to handle this case. In 10.1.3 the window you open is an external browser window. You cannot disable the close button here because it is part of the browser window that JavaScript cannot control

Disable/enable window close button?

I have a new Window() open and I want to disable the close button when the window has already been opened. Does anyone know how to do this in Flex?

Ok I got, it's an AIR app.
You can listen to event Closing and preventDefault on it. Check this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
 xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
 xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
 closing="closingHandler(event)">
<fx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 protected function closingHandler(event:Event):void
 if(!forceClose.selected)
 event.preventDefault();
 ]]>
</fx:Script>
<s:CheckBox id="forceClose" label="Force close" />
</s:WindowedApplication>

How to disable the close button(Cross) on a dialog

Hi,
Is there a way to disable the close button (cross on the right top of the dialog) on a dialog.
Thank you

Since your posting in the swing project forum, I assume your talking about JDialog. If so, use JDialog.setDefaultCloseOperation( DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE ). Same method exists in JFrame as well, but not in JWindow.

How to mark window close button as "unsaved"?

Using SWT, you can change the main window quit/close icon/button (in upper left corner of title bar) to indicate that the file/whatever of the application has not been saved. The code to do that in SWT is something like this -
Shell shell = new Shell(new Display(), SWT.CLOSE | SWT.TITLE | SWT.BORDER | SWT.MIN);
shell.setModified(true);
Is this feature available in Java FX 2.2? If not, has there been a bug/request filed for it?

I had a question going in the same direction: "Is there any way to disable the close button in a decorated stage?" but from your answer to the previous question, I guess this is not possible... could you please confirm this? A workaround would be to set an event handler to consume the window close event. Looks like I'll need to go that way. Or could you suggest a better way?I don't think it's possible with to disable the button in JavaFX 2.2 - if you did, it would provide an inconsistent native windowing experience for the user anyway as I've never seen a close button on a Windows 7 app disabled.
However, as you point out, you can capture (and handle or ignore) the events if generated. You can do this by setting an onCloseRequest event handler for the window and calling event.consume() in the handler. (relevant javadoc comment):
https://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/stage/Window.html#setOnCloseRequest%28javafx.event.EventHandler%29
Called when there is an external request to close this Window. The installed event handler can prevent window closing by consuming the received event.------
You could check out my related answer at StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12874664/javafx-entirely-customized-windows, for some other thoughts on this on customizing decorated and undecorated windows, but I think most has already been said in this thread.

Popup window - Close button

Hi,
We have a requirement to disable/hide the standard close button present in the Internet Explorer while opening a popup window (the X icon present in the top right section of internet explorer window) . Any pointers on how to achieve this would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance.

I don't think it is possible to hide X of any window, as it is default feature of explorer by MSDN.

Disabling default close button in JFrame

hi,
in JFrame there are by default 'minimize', 'maximize' and 'close' button. is it possible to disable or not to show the 'close' button'
regards,
tom

If you want to control the closing of the frame you can use
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE)If you are interested in listening whether this button was clicked (for example as an alternative to a "Close" button you can register a WindowListener and handle the windowClosing(...) event
About disabling/hiding - maybe you will have to subclass the frame header UI class, which is L&F specific.

Remove window close button

have a small side frame that will only contain a single image. (sort of a preview image) controlled by the main frame.
i want to remove the close window button on this side frame (maximize too, really), but defintily close.
is there a way to do this ?

Use a JWindow.
Or use a JDialog and get rid of the title bar:
dialog.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(false) ;
Or if you use a JDialog leave the title bar, but disable the buttons
dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(DO_NOTHING_ON_EXIT);
dialog.setResizable(false);

Does Adobe Reader Disable window.close()?

Help! I open a window using
onclick='javascript:MyWindow=window.open("Meeting.pdf")'
But the following fails when trying to automatically close that window
<body onunload="MyWindow.close()">
This same code works fine when MyWindow does not have a PDF file (for instance, onclick='javascript:MyWindow=window.open("Picture.jpg")' works fine).
Almost seems as if Adobe Reader is disabling .close
Any thoughts?

Please repost in the Acrobat Scripting forum.

Safari 3.0.4 window close button and Command W not working

Just upgraded to 10.4.11 and Safari 3.0.4, now I cannot close any Safari windows either by the Red button or command W. I am running a Powerbook G4. I had the same problem with previous beta versions of Safari.

I was also experiencing this problem, and removing the library/input managers/SIMBL fixed it. But I dug a bit deeper, and found out that SIMBL looks in library/application support/SIMBL/plugins. I found a file in there called Taboo dated 5/8/2005 and removed it. Problem solved, even with the SIMBL files in the input managers folder.
Hope this helps.

Disabling the window close(x) button

Is there any way to ensure that the window does not get unloaded when the close button (x) is clicked or can we simply disable the close button?

As far as I know there is no way to differentiate between window closing events depending on their source.

While running the form, in window there will be two close button, one is in form and another one is in Internet Explorer. By making changes on the property what you said above this will hide only the form's close button. I want to hide the internet explorer close button also.

Disable Main Window Close

I have developed an AIR application and here is my goal, I don’t want users been able to close the main window. I have tried to disable the close button but I thing that it is not possible. I would like to find a way to control that may be in trapping the close event of the window.
Regards,

You can listen to the Event.CLOSING event and preventDefault on it, for example:
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
 xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
 creationComplete="init()">
 <fx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 private function init():void {
 addEventListener(Event.CLOSING, cancelClose);
 private function cancelClose(e:Event):void {
 if (!allowClose.selected)
 e.preventDefault()
 ]]>
 </fx:Script>
 <s:CheckBox id="allowClose" label="allow closing" />
</s:WindowedApplication>

Disable "Close" button of command prompt through LabVIEW using Win32 APIs

Hello all,
I am trying to disable the close button of a third party console application that I am invoking through LabVIEW. I tried using GetSystemMenu() and DeleteSystemMenu() from user32.dll, but somewhere I am doing it wrong.
Can anyone can suggest a solution to this?
Thanks!

Do you have the handle to Window? Off hand, I don't know how to delete it, but here is some C# code that I used to grey out the close window button in another project:
        [DllImport("user32.dll")]
        private static extern IntPtr GetSystemMenu(IntPtr hWnd, bool bRevert);
        [DllImport("user32.dll")]
        private static extern bool EnableMenuItem(IntPtr hMenu, uint uIDEnableItem,
           uint uEnable);
        private const Int32 SC_CLOSE = 0xF060;
        private const UInt32 MF_BYCOMMAND    =0x00000000;
        private const UInt32 MF_ENABLED = 0x00000000;
        private const UInt32 MF_GRAYED = 0x00000001;
        private const UInt32 MF_DISABLED = 0x00000002;
        private void EnableClose(bool enable)
            IntPtr pSysMenu = GetSystemMenu(Handle, false);
            if (pSysMenu != null)
                EnableMenuItem(pSysMenu, SC_CLOSE, MF_BYCOMMAND | (enable ? MF_ENABLED : MF_DISABLED));
This was fairly easy to convert over once I had the handle (this is from a library I picked up somewhere).
Hope this helps.
