Re: Modal dialogs on Windows

Answering myself:

I've been using :owner (capi:convert-to-screen) in every call to display-dialog, since otherwise the dialog opens as a sheet on Mac OS X. But that also seems to be the source of the Windows problems: only the interface specified as :owner is disabled.

So, the documentation is still not completely accurate, but at least I have a workaround for most of the cases (I still have a problem when I have more than one interface that needs to be disabled by a single dialog).
