[Scilab-Dev] uiwait()

[Samuel Gougeon]

Hello Scilab devs,

uiwait() is a builtin used once and only in the function 
datatipCreatePopupMenu().
Apparently, it is used to wait for an answer from the user/Context menu 
before returning.

Can this function be used for other uicontrols?
I mean: it would be useful to be able to turn modal some (any?) ui object,
for instance waiting for a button being clicked, for an item in a drop-down
list to be selected, etc, before going on with the processing.

This function is not documented. Is it on purpose? Can it be used only on
a uiContextMenu handle?

Thanks for any further information.
Samuel
