Open Settings Dialog with TextInput

[Korbi-code]

Hello,

I'm currently figuring out what the best solution is to open a "Settings" menu that will show up, similar to the info_dialog.

It should have an input field where the user can type in an API key needed by the main application.

I have some ideas, but I want to know how this is supposed to be done or how others have done something like this.

Thanks in advance

Right now, Toga doesn't have a built-in mechanism for displaying/editing settings - it's been on our wish list for a long time (#90).

The immediate workaround is to create a Toga.Window to serve as the dialog, modify the default "settings/preferences" command to display that dialog when requested (or install a new command of your own), and store settings as user data using the toga.App.paths.config file prefix.

@freakboy3742 is this still the best way to do ?

With the current set of features of Toga - yes.
