Modal & Modeless Windows in Oracle Forms
A window in oracle forms is a container for all visual objects that make up a Forms application. You can create two different type of windows in oracle forms. Lets have a brief comparisons between these two types of windows.
Modal Window:
A modal window is a restricted window that the user must respond to before moving the input focus to another window. Modal windows:
- Must be dismissed before control can be returned to a modeless window
- Become active as soon as they display
- Require a means of exit or dismissal
Modeless Window:
A modeless window is an unrestricted window that the user can exit freely. Modeless windows:
- Can display many at once
- Are not necessarily active when displayed
- Are the default window type
