Hello everybody.
I've just begun to try to make modal dialogs in COFFEE, so I've made a test plugin which creates a single ComboBox in a dialog window. But, my problem is that the dialog closes immediately after the user selects an item of the ComboBox.
Here is my code :

class myDialog : GeModalDialog  
{  
public:  
    myDialog();  
    CreateLayout();  
    Command(id,msg);  
}  
  
myDialog::myDialog()  
{  
    super();  
}  
  
myDialog::CreateLayout()  
{  
    AddComboBox(1,0,0,0);  
        AddItem(1,1,"Button A");  
        AddItem(1,2,"Button B");  
        AddItem(1,3,"Button C");  
}  
  
myDialog::Command(id,msg)  
{  
}  
  
class myPlugin : MenuPlugin  
{  
public:  
    myPlugin();  
    GetID();  
    GetName();  
    GetHelp();  
    Execute(doc);  
}  
  
myPlugin::myPlugin()  
{  
    super();  
}  
  
myPlugin::GetID()  
{  
    return 1000001;  
}  
  
myPlugin::GetName()  
{  
    return "myPlugin";  
}  
  
myPlugin::GetHelp()  
{  
    return "Something";  
}  
  
myPlugin::Execute(doc)  
{  
    var d=new(myDialog);  
    d->Open(-1,-1);  
    return;  
}  
  
main()  
{  
    Register(myPlugin);  
}

I would appreciate your help. Thank you.

I wouldn't use '1' as an active gadget's id. Best to start at a value of '10000'. See the documentation under "Dialog Layout" subheading "Manual Layout" for an example of suggested numbering (or check out some of the example sources linked as well). For non-active gadgets, such as StaticText used solely as labels, '0' is fine.

Your gadget id may be conflicting with the default OK/Cancel id's which may explain the odd behaviour. I see that the Calculator example uses '1' to '14', but I wouldn't start that small.

You're right. Changing my gadget id to a value of 200 makes my dialog working.
Thanks a lot for your help.

you should really use values greater than 1000 as lower values are used by Cinema 4D in some areas afaik.
