"""
    ScriptForge libraries are an extensible and robust collection of macro scripting resources for LibreOffice
    to be invoked from user Basic or Python macros. Users familiar with other BASIC macro variants often face hard
    times to dig into the extensive LibreOffice Application Programming Interface even for the simplest operations.
    By collecting most-demanded document operations in a set of easy to use, easy to read routines, users can now
    program document macros with much less hassle and get quicker results.

    The use of the ScriptForge interfaces in user scripts hides the complexity of the usual UNO interfaces.
    However, it does not replace them. At the opposite their coexistence is ensured.
    Indeed, ScriptForge provides a number of shortcuts to key UNO objects.

    The scriptforge.py module
        - describes the interfaces (classes and attributes) to be used in Python user scripts
          to run the services implemented in the standard modules shipped with LibreOffice
        - implements a protocol between those interfaces and, when appropriate, the corresponding ScriptForge
          Basic libraries implementing the requested services.

    The scriptforge.pyi module
        - provides the static type checking of all the visible interfaces of the ScriptForge API.
        - when the user uses an IDE like PyCharm or VSCode, (s)he might benefit from the typing
          hints provided by them thanks to the actual scriptforge.pyi module.

    class SF_Dialog(SFServices):
        """
            The ``Dialog`` service contributes to the management of dialogs created with the Basic Dialog Editor
            or dialogs created on-the-fly. Each instance of the ``Dialog`` class represents a single dialog box
            displayed to the user.

            A dialog box can be displayed in modal or in non-modal modes.

                In modal mode,
                    the box is displayed and the execution of the macro process is suspended
                    until one of the ``OK`` or ``Cancel`` buttons is pressed. In the meantime, user actions executed
                    on the box can trigger specific actions.

                In non-modal mode,
                    the dialog box is "floating" on the user desktop and the execution
                    of the macro process continues normally. A non-modal dialog closes when it is terminated
                    with the Terminate() method or when the LibreOffice session ends.
                    The window close button is inactive in non-modal dialogs.

            A dialog box disappears from memory after its explicit termination.

                Defines which controls in a dialog are responsible for switching pages, making it easier

                Dialogs may have multiple pages and the currently visible page is defined by the ``Page``dialog property.
                If the ``Page`` property is left unchanged, the default visible page is equal to ``0`` (zero), meaning
                that no particular page is defined and all visible controls are displayed regardless of the value set in
                their own ``Page`` property.

                be displayed.

                By using the SetPageManager method it is possible to define four types of page managers:
                    - List box or combo box: in this case, each entry in the list box or combo box corresponds to a page. The first item refers to Page 1, the second items refers to Page 2 and so on.
                    - Group of radio buttons: defines a group of radio buttons that will control which page is visible.
                    - Sequence of buttons: defines a set of buttons, each of which corresponding to a dialog page. This can be used to emulate a tabbed interface by placing buttons side by side in the dialog.
                    - Previous/Next buttons: defines which buttons in the dialog that will be used to navigate to the Previous/Next page in the dialog.

                This method is supposed to be called just once before calling the ``Execute()`` method.
                Subsequent calls are ignored.
                    Args
                        ``pilotcontrols``: a comma-separated list of ``ListBox``, ``ComboBox`` or ``RadioButton``
                        control names used as page managers.
                        For ``RadioButton`` controls, specify the name of the first control in the group to be used.

                        ``tabcontrols``: a comma-separated list of button names that will be used as page managers.
                        The order in which they are specified in this argument corresponds to the page number
                        they are associated with.

                        ``wizardcontrols``: a comma-separated list with the names of two buttons that will be used
                        s the ``Previous/Next`` buttons.

                        It is recommended to specify this value when using the ``Previous/Next`` page manager.

                        indicating which columns will be considered to determine if a row is a duplicate or not.
                        If this argument is left blank, then only the first column is used.
                        Column numbers must be in the interval between ``1`` and the range width.

                            ``windowname``: see definitions at ``SF_UI`` class level.
                        ``PopupMenu``
                            ``event``: the mouse event object passed by ``LibreOffice`` to the event-handling routine.
