DESCRIPTION

In a large Wx application with multiple dialogs or windows, many different parts of the application may want to post messages or prompt the user.

The Padre::Wx::Role::Dialog role allows dialog or window classes to "host" these messages.

Providing these as a role means that each part of your application can post messages and have the positioning of the dialogs be made appropriate for each dialog.
