While a model is running, it is sometimes useful to have a pop-up window which freezes the model, until the user presses a button or closes this pop-up window.

The command msg(str caption, str text [, num buttontype]) lets you create a message box with a title bar displaying the caption, the text written inside the box, and buttons such as OK, Cancel, Yes or No. This message box is a modal window: it requires the user to interact with it before he can return to operating FlexSim.

But you could feel like creating your own GUI and open this GUI in a modal window like the msg command.

To create a modal view, you just need to add in a node named "modal" in your GUI's attribute sub-tree.
