Jump to user comments
1. (Of an interface) Having modes. Modeless interfaces are
generally considered to be superior because the user does not
have to remember which mode he is in.
2. See modal logic.
3. In MS Windows programming, A window with the label
"WS_MODAL" will stay on the screen and claim all the
user-input. Other windows can only be accessed if the MODAL
window is closed. Such a window would typically be used for
an error dialog box to warn the user for something
important, like "Critical error, shut down the system and
restart".
