form parent

[jahlxx]

Hi.

 

When I call show or showmodal to a form (form2), from other form (form1),

 

- which is the parent of form2? 

 

- can I change the parent in runtime?

 

- if yes, how and when?

 

Thanks.

as far as I know, it is not possible change the parent

What are you needing to do?

I need to know wich is the parent of a form when call show or showmodal from another form.

 

It seems that the parent is allways the mainform.

For example:

 

If I do from form1:  form2.show, the parent of form2 seems to be mainform

 

But if I do:

 

   form2.parent := form1;

   form2.show;

 

Then the parent of form2 is form1.

 

I don't know why.

 

Is possible this behaviour by default with no need of doing form2.parent := form1?

 

Thanks.
