Dialog box - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Modal dialog boxes are those which temporarily halt the program in the sense that the user cannot continue until the dialog has been closed: the program may require some additional information before it can continue, or may simply wish to confirm that the user wants to proceed with a potentially dangerous course of action. Dialog boxes are special windows which are used by computer programs or by the operating system to display information to the user, or to get a response if needed. Modeless dialog boxes are often similar in function with utility windows. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Dialog_box   (538 words)

Combo box - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia When the combo box is inactive, it shows only its textbox aspect, which bears the current value of the control, and (usually) some mechanism to show the rest of the choices is also visible. In some implementations it is possible to change the value of a combo box without showing the list component by focussing it and then using the arrow keys. For example, to reach Zimbabwe on a long list of countries, one could focus the combo box and strike the Z key, reducing the amount of scrolling necessary to reach the intended item. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Combo_box   (375 words)

Musical box - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A musical box (or music box) is a 19th century automatic musical instrument that produces sounds by the use of a set of pins placed on a revolving cylinder or disc so as to strike the tuned teeth of a steel comb. Alec Templeton, an avid collector of music boxes, and a professional concert musician, once noted that the tone of a musical box is unlike that of any musical instrument (although it is best described as somewhere between the timbres of an mbira and a celesta). At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th most musical boxes were gradually replaced by Player pianos, which were more versatile and loud, and also melodious, when kept tuned, and by the smaller gramophones which had the advantage of playing back voices. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Music_box   (1475 words)
