If the default is not appropriate, then the programmer needs to supply the owner. This
owner
argument can be any CAPI pane that is currently displayed, and the top level interface of the pane is used as the actual owner. The
owner
can also be a
screen
object, which tells the system on which screen to put the dialog, but none of the windows will be the dialog's owner.
The
owner
can be supplied by the keyword argument
:owner
in functions such as
display-dialog
and
print-dialog
. Other functions such as
prompt-for-string
and
prompt-for-file
can be supplied an owner in the
:popup-args
list as a pair
:owner
owner
.
