[Gambas-user] how to know when a form runnig was invoked from another or not?

[Fabien Bodard]

Hey Lenz... Indirectly the value is passed, if it's not by you , it's
by the interpreter or class. There is no sorcery.

well then when you read the code ... it's not the parent that show the
form but the form itself.

MyForm . ShowModal

Where showmodal is the function from MyForm.

The only way is to pass the value via a Static Function. Or/and via an
extend on the _New function (the constructor)
