~~Title: Creating Script Dialogs ~~
<pageheader/>

==In script add-ins==

Dialogs can be created via the //Resources// tab in the [[..script_editor|script editor]].

==In button functions==

When you're in [[:customize|Customize]] mode and editing a button that's set as a //[[..:script_functions|Script Function]]//, a **Resources** tab is visible:

This tab lets you edit the [[..:resources|resources]] associated with the script function. You can edit them in free-form XML if you like, but for dialogs you can also use the in-built dialog editor which is a much easier way of designing dialogs.



To add a script dialog, select the **Resources** tab and then click the **Dialogs** drop-down, as shown above. The **New Dialog** command will prompt you for a name for your dialog (this is the name your script will use to access it), and then display the [[..script_editor:editors:dialog_editor|dialog editor]].



You can see in the above image that three dialogs have already been defined - **books**, **interests** and **person**. You can edit existing dialogs simply by selecting them from the **Dialogs** drop-down.
