forcing custom dialog size

[raingirl]

I have a longer custom dialog message for my users. They can open the box bigger if they want to but let's face it, most of them won't do this to read the whole message. Is there a way to script the size of the custom dialog box so that it is the size I need it to be?

Thanks

Not unless things have changed from v7 to v8. Why not pop-up your own layout with your message and use Pause/Resume Script to make the window quasi-modal?

True, it will even look semi decent on a Mac.

Another way is to modify your script so that you have a series of Custom Dialogs. Each one has only a sentence or two. I'm not a big fan of this method but it works.

Consider eith the Troi Dialog plugin or 24U Simple Dialog plugin. Both are substantial improvements over the Custom Dialog.
