Sizing Show Custom Dialog Window,,, for giving operator instructions?

[RodM]

When I open a "Show Dialog Window" that was previously open in a expanded or shrinked down view

Seem to retain it's size?

Any ideas how to solve this ughhhh

TIA

Only one way that I know of (I thought closing the file would reset the dialogs but it doesn't) ... you must select Edit > Preferences and General tab and click Reset. I don't know of any way via script to set all dialog boxes (or even just the Custom Dialog inside the script) back to default size.

Thanks

Appreciate.. so what do others use.. A troi dialog or another?

if dialog message is big... other than a short 1 line,,,yes/no etc ,,,

I have tend to put to much info in some of these... most info and a OK to exit

The easiest method is to open a new window that *looks* like a dialog.
