[QUOTE="ZealotSix, post: 380346, member: 81800"] junkixl, I've been down this road before, and had all the same problems you are describing. I was trying to create a dialog with the same functionality as GUIDialogYesNo, only with different button captions (retry/cancel in my case). I was unsucesful in creating my own dialog without requiring a custom skin, etc. What I ended up doing was modifying the GUIDialogYesNo at runtime. I do not know what you are trying to accomplish, but if you just want to change the button captions, you can do what I did: [CODE] /// <summary> /// Displays a yes/no dialog with custom labels for the buttons /// </summary> /// <returns>True if yes was clicked, False if no was clicked</returns> private bool ShowCustomYesNo(string heading, string lines, string yesLabel, string noLabel, bool defaultYes) { GUIDialogYesNo dialog = (GUIDialogYesNo)GUIWindowManager.GetWindow((int)GUIWindow.Window.WINDOW_DIALOG_YES_NO); try { dialog.Reset(); dialog.SetHeading(heading); string[] linesArray = lines.Split(new string[] { "\\n" }, StringSplitOptions.None); if (linesArray.Length > 0) dialog.SetLine(1, linesArray[0]); if (linesArray.Length > 1) dialog.SetLine(2, linesArray[1]); if (linesArray.Length > 2) dialog.SetLine(3, linesArray[2]); if (linesArray.Length > 3) dialog.SetLine(4, linesArray[3]); dialog.SetDefaultToYes(defaultYes); foreach (System.Windows.UIElement item in dialog.Children) { if (item is GUIButtonControl) { GUIButtonControl btn = (GUIButtonControl)item; if (btn.GetID == 11 && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(yesLabel)) // Yes button btn.Label = yesLabel; else if (btn.GetID == 10 && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(noLabel)) // No button btn.Label = noLabel; } } dialog.DoModal(GetID); return dialog.IsConfirmed; } finally { // set the standard yes/no dialog back to it's original state (yes/no buttons) if (dialog != null) dialog.ClearAll(); } } [/CODE] Hope this helps. If you end up doing something different, please post back here, because I would be interested in seeing it. [/QUOTE]
