Control Elements. Creating User Defined Dialog Boxes
First, let's create the control element for defining the part height. Call the respective automenu option:
Combo Box
Position the control to the right of the “Height” caption, as shown on the
diagram.
Next, in the coming up “Insert Variable” dialog box, select the variable to
bind to the control being created (the variable “height” in the case of the part
height).
If necessary, you can specify the name of any non-existent variable by manually entering it in the
“Expression” field. This brings up the standard “Variable value” dialog box, described in the
chapter “Brief introductory course”. The variable being created is automatically marked as
external.
Create yourself the “Combo Box”-type controls for the variables “width” and “width_1”.
The next step is creation of control elements for modifying the variables r_min and r_max that drive the size
of the conic hole. Since these variables do not have predefined lists of values, you can use “Edit Box”
controls for them:
Edit Box
Let's create the “Edit Box” of the variable r_min. Activate the option and define
the control position according to the diagram. In the “Insert Variable”, select
the variable to bind the control to – r_min.
Similarly, create “Edit Box” for the variable r_max.
To make the selector for axis display, in this example one can use the “Check Box” control, placing it in the
“Preferences” group.
Select the automenu option:
Check Box
