[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #42490] helpdlg does not return a proper graphics handle

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #42490 (project octave):

As far as helpdlg.m (and its other *dlg siblings) is concerned, they currently
produce Java-based windows. I wonder if Octave's ui.... functions would be
able to deal with Java window handles anyway.

AFAIU Matlab's GUI was Java-based so it made more sense there to return a Java
window handle. (I'm not sure about the GUI of ML's recent versions though.)

Maybe this bug can be attacked once Qt-based *dlg functions are implemented.
Should this bug report be marked as "postponed" and/or "feature request" until
then?
