detect open lldialog ?!?!?!?

[acomerlaaa Ibor]

hello, i want to lunch a llDialog only if there isnt another llDialog already open, is there any way to make it? i think if (!llDialog) or if (llDialog != NULL) but doesnt works.

 

Thanks for your time.

No, there is no way to detect if a dialog is open. What you can do is to close the listener with a timer if the dialog hasn't been used.

Along with the timer idea, if you really want to make sure you don't have multiple dialog 's open you can set a flag (DIALOG =TRUE) when activated, and DIALOG =FALSE when closed. Just test the condition before the call to llDialog().

and there is any way to close all llDialog so i close all before launch the next one?

No

If you use some kind of a flag to check if a dialog is already opened like it was suggested in other replies, you will not have more than one dialog open at a time so no need to be concerned with more than one.

I usually store user id (key) when the dialog opens and clear it (set to NULL_KEY) when it closes, but  a simple flag DIALOG = TRUE/FALSE would do just fine.

The answers posted here are really all you can do.  If you'd like to get more confused and frustrated, though, take a look here >>> http://www.sluniverse.com/php/vb/scripting/69820-lldialog-replacing-itself.html  :smileyfrustrated:

If the dialog user presses the "ignore" button NO message is generated so the script does not know whether the dialog is open or not.

If a flag is used then it will flag the dialog open while it is closed. So you always need a timer to clean up. There is at least a listen to close. And in case of the above mentioned flag usage - nobody can use the dialog until the timer runs out.

You can add a "cancel" button of course but there is no guarantee that the "ignore" button isn't used so you have to be prepared for that.
