Hi Michael,
First of all, "dynamic modality" is not possible with SWT. Modality is a
static property of the Shell (and I think for good reasons).
Your use case is quite common, thus it is often recommended not to
overuse modality. If users should be able to access the lower shells
e.g. to lookup or c&p information, why does this dialog have to be modal
at all? If the reason was to keep it above other shells, you might be
interested in the latest Shell bugfixes [1]. Dialog shells stay always
on top of their parents now.
Although the qooxdoo Window provide a setModal function I would not
recommend to use this in RAP because our Shell implementation uses a
slightly different approach which will probably interfere.
Regards,
Ralf
