Non-Modal JFace Dialog?

Question

Simply put: Is there any way to create non-modal JFace dialog? I\'ve tried calling setShellStyle to no avail. If I remember right this isn\'t a problem in swing

Answer 1

Using

setShellStyle(SWT.CLOSE | SWT.MODELESS | SWT.BORDER | SWT.TITLE);
setBlockOnOpen(false);

seems to be the practice. This doesn't work for you?

Answer 2

@Override
protected void setShellStyle(int newShellStyle) {           
    super.setShellStyle(SWT.CLOSE | SWT.MODELESS| SWT.BORDER | SWT.TITLE);
    setBlockOnOpen(false);
}

The above code will solve the problem..
