If a developer wants to modify any properties of a dialog or a control, it is necessary to have access to the dialog model. From a dialog, the model can be obtained by the getModel method of the com.sun.star.awt.XControl interface

  oDialogModel = oDialog.getModel()

or shorter

  oDialogModel = oDialog.Model
