Hi,
I'd like to create a custom dialog when a user adds a certains type of node
to the diagram.
I thought this had been asked before on here but I could not find the
entry - so sorry if it has.
Can anyone give me a few pointers on:-
1) Best way to create a custom dialog.
2) Where should this be plug into in the diagram setup ?
Thanks for any help,
Stu
