Hello,

Is there a way to create a custom NX dialog box for user inputs? It would be constructed in the same manner as a windows form but it would be constructed out of NX objects and look/feel similar to the dialog boxes used by standard NX functions.

Thank you,

Yes, you can use the "block UI styler" to create custom dialog boxes with the NX look and feel. To make full use of the styler, you will need a license to do so. Even if you do not have the license, you can give the editor a trial run. Turn on the "developer" ribbon and you will have access to the "block UI styler"; if you do not have a license, it will allow you to use a demo mode (your changes will not be saved).

Thank you for the info. The name of the license that is required is just the "Block UI Styler" license?

Thank you,

I don't know the exact name of the license as sold. I would suggest that you contact your reseller for license information and pricing.
