Dialog boxes

SaDisplay(3tlib) describes a set of routines for displaying error dialog boxes. Such boxes alert the user to problems that occur commonly, such as lack of authorization for an operation, or errors that have occurred in operations.

Most secondary dialogs are created using VtFormDialog in the callback of a menu button on the main form. Here is an example from the template that displays the result of the Who->Examine selection, a simple dialog with a single Close button:

   set details [VtFormDialog $parent.UiExamineCB \
           -ok -okLabel [IntlMsg CLOSE] -okCallback VxEndFormCB \
           -cancelButton OK \
           -title [IntlMsg DETAILS] \
