XmCreateMessageDialog is a convenience creation function that creates a DialogShell and an unmanaged MessageBox child of the DialogShell​. A MessageDialog is used for common interaction tasks, which include giving information, asking questions, and reporting errors​. It includes a symbol, a message, and three buttons​. By default, there is no symbol​. The default button labels are OK, Cancel, and Help​.

Use XtManageChild to pop up the MessageDialog (passing the MessageBox as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down​.

XmCreateMessageDialog forces the value of the Shell resource XmNallowShellResize to True​.
