[Gambas-user] gb.web.form: Preserve state of dialog window

[Tobias Boege]

Hi,

I would like to have a dialog window (containing settings for the current
session, say) which I want to show when the user clicks a button on some
webform, with the following behaviour:

 - the application should be usable while the window is visible,
 - it should not be possible to have the window opened twice, and
 - the controls in that window should retain their values after the
   window was closed so that I can refer to these values from another
   Webform and when the dialog is opened again, all controls are
   properly initialised already with the settings the user left it with.

Oddly, I can't do any of these, e.g. for point two above, I have a Webform2
class (the dialog) and whenever I do

  Webform2.Show()

in Webform1, a new window is created containing a fresh instance of Webform2,
regardless of whether Webform2 (which is Create Static) is already shown or
not. I presume I misunderstand how gb.web.form works here? Is it possible to
have a dialog such as above? (I'm currently running #7949.)

Regards,
Tobi
