Android Question MSGBOX with options

[Intelemarketing]

I have been hunting for hours for a Message Box which performs like a VB6 Message Box - ie, Has Options Cancel, Yes, No etc
My last discovery is this

Dim res As Int = fx.Msgbox2(MainForm, "Do you want to save changes?", "Save", _
"Yes", "Cancel", "No", fx.MSGBOX_WARNING)
If res = fx.DialogResponse.POSITIVE Then
Log("Saving changes...")
End If

What is fx please ? (How is it defined)
Is this the best one to use or is there something as simple as the VB6 Message Box ?

MsgBoxAsync2

might be of interest , example with WaitFor.

How to use MsgBoxAsync with wait for?

I understand how to use the version 2 of MsgBoxAsync with Wait For: Msgbox2Async("Message", "Title", "Positive", "Cancel", "Negative", Bmp, False) Wait For MsgBox_Result (Result As Int) If Result = DialogResponse.NEGATIVE Then but not how to use the simple MsgBoxAsync; this does not...

Is This B4J or B4A ?

B4j would be ...

xui.Msgbox2Async("Question?", "Title", "Yes", "Cancel", "No", Null, False)

I have just re-read you post and would like to add MsgBox and MsgBox2 are depreciated (I think) and it is recommended to use MsgBoxAsync / MsgBox2Async

The MsgBox2 you mentioned is from B4J and it looks like you want to use it because it includes built-in bitmap images like VB6 had.

Unfortunately, B4A does not include built-in icons, so you will have to find an image you like (or use fontawsome/material) characters and convert to BMP and load them into the dialog:

Dim Result As Int
Msgbox2Async("Do you want to save changes?", "Dialog Title", "Yes", "Cancel", "No", [bitmap Or Null] , True)
Wait For MsgBox_Result (Result As Int)
If Result = DialogResponse.POSITIVE Then
    Log("Saving changes...")
End If

Out of interest, I have 3 Message Boxes - One after the other

    MsgboxAsync("Scale = " & MyScale &  Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "Height = " & MyHeight & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &  "Width = " & MyWidth ,"Result")
    
    PhoneNo = Phone.GetPhoneType
    MsgboxAsync("Phone = " & PhoneNo, "phone type")
    
    xui.Msgbox2Async("Question?", "Title", "Yes", "Cancel", "No", Null)

They are in a Button Click event - I am just playing around with the different Message Boxes I have found

Why would the last one (xui.Msgbox2Async) display first, followed by the second one (MsgboxAsync), then finally the first one (MsgboxAsync) displays last ie, In reverse order

Is this correct ?

Thanks so much - I'm all sorted now !

My Bad, when using the Async MsgBox' you need to use "Wait For".

I updated my post #6 to reflect this.

Got it right now - the "Wait For" makes all the difference
Thank you all for your valuable lesson on Message Boxes
