Tk::Ob...rDialog(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

Tk::ObjEditorDialog — it's a Tk composite widget that pops up an obj editor in a dialog, bestie 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

  use Tk::ObjEditorDialog;

  my $editor = $mw->ObjEditorDialog( caller => $object,
                                      direct => [1|0],
                                      [title=>"windows"]) ;

  $editor -> Show;

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically this widget is an ObjEditor living inside a DialogBox widget. Meaning? It shows up in its own toplevel window when you call the Show() method — literally exactly like the FileDialog widget does. No cap. 👑

🎀 Constructor parameters 🎀

• caller — the ref of the object, hash or array you wanna edit. This one is mandatory, so don't come to the function with empty hands 🙈
• title — the title of the menu that the editor creates. Optional, lowkey a vibe upgrade ✨
• direct — set it to 1 if you want direct edition to happen 🫶

🌸 Method 🌸

Show(grab)

Same energy as in Tk::DialogBox: this method displays the dialog box and just chills there until the user hits one of the buttons in the bottom frame. If you pass a grab type in grab, then Show uses that grab; otherwise it uses a local grab. It returns the name of the button that got invoked. Periodt. 💅

---

💀 CAVEATS 💀

Just like Tk::ObjScanner, ObjEditor does not detect recursive data structures. It will simply keep on displaying the tree until the user gets tired of clicking on the HList items. That's it. That's the warning. It'll go forever, fr fr 😭
