I have 2 small questions:-

1. How do I make a window 'undraggable' (not move when dragged)?

2. How do I make it such that a window is 'always on top' and the other windows never get focus? This is something like the 'modal = true' option for Messages, but for normal windows.

original in WindowC:

        <Child type="Button" skin="WindowCaption" offset = "3 0 18 30" align = "ALIGN_HSTRETCH ALIGN_TOP" name = "Caption">

            <Property key="Scale" value = "1 1 0 0"/>

        </Child>

Three variants:
1)
<Child type="Button" skin="WindowCaption" offset = "3 0 18 30" align = "ALIGN_HSTRETCH ALIGN_TOP" name = "Caption">
<Property key="Scale" value = "0 0 0 0"/>
</Child>

2)
<Child type="Button" skin="WindowCaption" offset = "3 0 18 30" align = "ALIGN_HSTRETCH ALIGN_TOP" name = "">
<Property key="Scale" value = "1 1 0 0"/>
</Child>

3)
use Window skin

InputManager::getInstance().addWidgetModal();

/** Add modal widget - all other widgets inaccessible while modal widget exist */
void addWidgetModal(WidgetPtr _widget);

Ahh... Nice hack for the first issue.

But for the second one, I'm using this code:-

//Load the layout.

MyGUI::LayoutManager::getInstance().loadLayout("LoadGame.layout");



//Center our window, make it modal.

mWindow = GlbVar.guiMgr->findWidget<MyGUI::Window>("win_loadGame");



Real height = mWindow->getHeight();

Real width = mWindow->getWidth();

mWindow->setPosition((WindowWidth - width) / 2, (WindowHeight - height) / 2);



MyGUI::InputManager::getInstance().addWidgetModal(mWindow);

Now, its modal (the other windows are not active), but this window is not active too. I can't use any of the Widgets on it, if I click on them nothing is happening. When I load this layout, another window is already present. If I destroy that window, then it works, but I want both the windows to be present at the same time.
