Re: how to "flash" the default OK button in a dialog?

hi Eric,

hmm...interestingly enough, it doesn't.

so on a hunch, i decided to try adding another line into my ModalFilterUPP, so that now it looks like this:

pascal Boolean myModalFilterProc( DialogRef theDialog, EventRecord *theEvent, SInt16 *itemHit )
{
SetDialogDefaultItem( theDialog, GetDialogDefaultItem( theDialog ) );
return( StdFilterProc( theDialog, theEvent, itemHit ) );
}

...and now, everything is working properly. so i guess that the first reply *was* correct (sorry Peter), only it appears that inside of the ModalFilterUPP i have to *always* call SetDialogDefaultItem(), even though it was set initially back when the dialog was created.

...so SetDialogDefaultItem() must be doing something other than just assigning the given default item value, eh?

...thanks to all who replied! -phil.

...now when i do it that way, my default buttons (DITL #1) are not flashing in OS X. IF i replace 'myFilterUPP' with 'NULL' in the call to ModalDialog(), then the default button DOES flash.

Does ModalDialog still return "ok" when you press Return, even if the OK button doesn't flash? Or is the Return key ignored entirely?
