Force Message box acknowledgement.

Hello all.
I would like to create a script (Message WIndow), that when launched displays a message and prompts the user to press "Ok".
I want to have the focus on the message and not allow the user to move the message window into the corner (i.e. not read the message and ignore it). Basically force them to press "OK" before they can do anything else on the computer.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Please see what I have below and thank you for any assistance!
display alert "Title Alert" message "Please be aware that all work will be lost upon logout. Please be sure to save to external media, such as a USB drive or CD." buttons {"OK"} default button 1

The short answer is no, this is not possible with AppleScript.

    and the file.size() is semicode, meaning there isnt a function for it. So you might end up with something like this
         response.setContentType( "application/zip" );
         String fileName = Globals.getAttachmentLocation() + readFile;
         response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" + fileName);
         BufferedInputStream bufferedInputStream = new BufferedInputStream( new FileInputStream( fileName ) );
         ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
         int start = 0;
         int length = 1024;
         byte[] buff = new byte[length];
         while ( bufferedInputStream.read( buff, start, length ) != -1 ) {
              byteArrayOutputStream.write( buff, start, length );
         bufferedInputStream.close();
         response.setContentLength( byteArrayOutputStream.size() );
         response.getOutputStream().write( byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray() );
         response.getOutputStream().flush();

    The Express VI that you are using uses the modal dialog functions. Thus, the second one cannot be displayed until the first one is acknowledged. You will need to create your own dialog boxes that are non-modal. There are a couple of examples that ship with LabVIEW on creating dialog boxes. Also do a search, as questions regarding creating custom dialog boxes has come up many times.

  • How to display a Message box

    Hi,
    i am using oracle forms 10g
    i need to dispaly a message box like VB.NET to user that displays messgae
    say "hello"
    how do i do it....whats the syntax or built in used ??
    plz help

    Rosario,
    If you use the message built-in, isn't the message
    displayed on the status line and you get a blank
    popup? Correct me if I am wrong.Sayeed ,
    If you write one and only one message, you are right it is displayed on the status line , but I wrote
    Message
    Message
    The second message only needs to be:
    Message(' ',no_acknowledge);
    The second message forces the first to pop up like an alert.
    Regards

  • I cannot open my firefox broswer. The message box appeared that said a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Under that there are debug and close program buttons.

  • Missing Message Box after Skin Copy in IC Agent

    Hi,
    I copied the default skin in a customer z-skin (and added a logo).
    Everything works fine, even the company logo is visible.
    Now I have the problem that for the role "IC Agent" all the three message boxes have disappeared and that behind the SAP logo, the "Interaction Center" is smaller then before.
    Is this a problem in the process of the copy? Or is the mistake somewhere else?
    Thanks for your help
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    We are facing exactly the same issue with our skin. we tried to copy 'NOVA' into a new custom skin and the three message boxes have disappeared.
    Also we get a warning on UI when we use this new custom skin saying "Communication management software system is not configured".
    Please can you extend help on this one. This is important for us.
    Many Thanks

    After data input in a dynamic form clicks the user send mail button. Before the email submit, the user has to decide going back to the form and validate the input or continuing to submit email.
    In case of going back to validate input the submission event must not solve. So, how can i implemente it in java and/or form calc script?

    Hello,
    The most easy way to solve your problem is to add two buttons, the first should be regular button and the second is submit by e-mail one. Set the
    'presence' property of the second to 'hidden' and add to it your email address. To the first button on 'click' event add the script like this
    form1.#subform[0].Button1::click - (JavaScript, client)
    var answer = xfa.host.messageBox("Send e-mail?","e-mail",2,1);
    if(answer==1){
    EmailSubmitButton1.execEvent('click');
    Hope this helps.

  • I'm trying to share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I have tried several times to save at 1080 HD, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying "File already open with write permission."  What's this mean?

    I'm trying to finalize/share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I'd like to finalize it 1080 hd and have tried several times, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying it can't be done because "File already open with with write permission."  What does this mean?  All files are closed; this iMovie project is the only thing open.  Does it mean one of the song files from iTunes? And should I just settle for saving it as a "large" file, which is what I'm trying right now?
    Thanks,

  • How can i display a message box when error comes in jsp?

    Hi,
    i need to display a message box whenever an error comes in my jsp. Actually my appln is that i am creating a bar chart using one applet by taking data from the database. When a user does not select a number data for y axis, now in the centre of the web page one java error is coming. "not in number format". it is looking very odd.
    so i want to display the error in a message box whenever it comes as above. pls help me how can i do the same...
    Regds,
    Abhi...

    Hi,
    thanx for ur response. so u mean to say that i can
    display the errors in the web page itself instead of
    displaying as a message box?Either way. You can have the JSP send a message to the applet to display a message box. Or you can just have the JSP do it. or you can have the applet detremine if the JSP would produce an error and then display the message it would display.
    >
    actually i am using servlets. jsp pages are used only
    as the front end. all the background works are doing
    in servlet only.It should be the same in any case. Is the applet connecting to the JSP pages or are you having the browser do it?
    >
    pls get back...

  • How to delete all messages in voice mail erased message box

    Is there a way to delete all the messages in my erased message box without going through them one at a time? Empty the trashcan.

    hullabaloo, we appreciate this device info! Should definitely be possible. If you go to your Voicemail Box, you can select Delete>on the bottom right hand corner, the option to choose Delete All should appear. This way you can delete them much quicker.

  • What's the easiest way to have a message box?

    Hey, i'm making this game and i have one frame and i have and one panel inside, and when the user completes the game i want a message box to popup saying "Congratulations, You Won!"
    At the moment when the user wins the game, i've just put a "System.out.println("You've Won"); but i want a message box to appear on top of the game. What's the best and simplest way to achieve this?
    I tried replacing my "System.out.println("You've Won") with JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "You Won!"); and that just caused the whole thing to freeze up.
    Thanks

    saru88 wrote:
    I did as you suggested and changed the "null" in
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "You Won!"); to
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "You Won!"); to refer to the JPanel which contains the game code.And? Any benefit (unlikely)?
    Sorry for my lack of explanation about freezing up, what happens is the message box appears, but the inside is completely transparent and so i can see the game display behind it. And if i click inside it, then it does nothing but change the focus to that window. When i said freeze before i meant, it becomes "non responding" and so I have to open "Task Manager" and close it that way. This sounds like a thread issue. Are you calling JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(...) off of the EDT, the Event Dispatch Thread?

    You can use javascript to send a message window in the http protocol.
