Hi,

Is it possible to show a custom dialog where the user enters the information instead of pressing one of the three buttons? (for instance, if the user needs to enter one number between 1 and 10)

Thanks in advance!

The Show Custom Dialog script step was introduced in FMP 6.0.

I knew I had seen it somewhere ... (I'm using 5.5)

Then ... is it possible to create a button that resumes a script that is being paused? (waiting for the customer input in a field) I just want to make sure that the user continues with the script in case the status area is not vissible.

Define a button to run the Pause/Resume script step.

I already tried that, but I can't make it work ...

First I run the "INPUT QUANTITY SCRIPT"

INPUT QUANTITY

Show Message [ Buttons: "Cancel", "OK", ""; Data: "Please enter quantity" ]

If [ Status( CurrentMessageChoice) = 1 ]

Exit Script

Else

End If

Go to Field [ Medicament quantity ]

Pause/Resume Script [ ]

Set Field [ TMP, "quantity is" & Medicament quantity ]

And when it is paused, I press the button I made to run the "RESUME SCRIPT" (below)

RESUME SCRIPT

Pause/Resume Script [ Indefinitely ]

But it just doesn't continue with the script ... what is wrong?

No no no. The button does not run a script, it needs to run the Resume Script *step* itself (on the left hand side).

Also, the button must not be defined to Exit or Halt the currently running script.

OK, I get it ... now is working great. Thanks!
