VectorScript

Message(DistDialog('Enter a distance value:','0'));

Python

vs.Message(vs.DistDialog('Enter a distance value:','0'))
BEGIN
	num := DistDialog(GetPlugInString(4004), Num2StrF(pStation_Spacing));
	IF NOT DidCancel THEN BEGIN
		SetRField(objHand, objName, 'Station Spacing', Num2Str(8, num));
		GetStationPoints;
		ReCreateNurbs(FALSE);

		Index := NumVertices - 1;
	END; {IF OnLine}
END; {FOR Index := 1 TO (NumVertices - 1)}
IF AddVert THEN
	VerticalDist := DistDialog(tempPIS3003,''); {What is the vertical travel up and down to be added}
TheDistance := Distance2 - Distance1;
TheDistance := TheDistance + VerticalDist;
DistStr := Num2StrF(TheDistance);

CurrClass := ActiveClass; {What is the vertical distance traveled ?}
{NameClass('Cable Length Marker');}
pathHd:= GetCustomObjectPath(TheCable);
