[Gambas-user] [Gambas Bug Tracker] Bug #1128: Message.Question should return -1 on cancel

[Tony Morehen]

That is the documented behaviour:

All Message functions can have up to three buttons:

  *

    The first button is always the default button.

  *

    The last button is always the cancel button.
