How to select default button on dialogs

Is there a way to set the default choice button on a dialog?

I have this code:

var $yes		 = globals.sys_i18n_getMessage({key: "i18n:btn.yes"});
var $no		= globals.sys_i18n_getMessage({key: "i18n:btn.no"});
var $tit		= globals.sys_i18n_getMessage({key: "i18n:tit.herstellen"});
var $msg		= globals.sys_i18n_getMessage({key: "i18n:msg.rapport_herstellen"});
var $res_dialog = plugins.dialogs.showWarningDialog($tit, $msg, $yes, $no);

Now the $yes button is selected to be the default button. But if I want the $no button to be selected by default without changing the position of the buttons, how can I do this?

Put $no before $yes

I don’t want to change the possition of the buttons. I always want to start with yes and then comes no.

I know other programming languages have options to set the default button. Like:

MESSAGE( text [,caption] [,icon] [,buttons] [,default] [,style] )

Hi,

$no_element.requestFocus() in the onShow-event of the form.

This won’t work when using the:
plugins.dialogs.showQuestionDialog
or
plugins.dialogs.showWarningDialog

There is no form or element to set the focus.

thats currently not possible, i think the Dialog plugin (DialogProvider class) need to be changed:

now always the first option is set to be the default one.

You could quickly patch it yourself and/or create a case for this.

Sorry, we use our own solutionModel- and form-based dialog module.
