Once an Unused Dialog is used, where does it go?

I am a total newbie to Advanced Installer, so if this is a silly question, please forgive me.

I am trying to create a custom dialog box. In the Unused Dialogs, I copied an existing dialog, renamed it and modified it. Then, in another dialog in the sequence, I added a button. If that button is clicked, I set it to open the new dialog that I just created.

Here's the thing, as soon as I "use" the dialog by setting a button to open it, it then vanishes from the Unused Dialogs section, and I can't find it. If I want to make edits to it, I need to un-use it so that I can see it, and then use it again.

Where does it go when I use it?

Thanks!
Daniel

Re: Once an Unused Dialog is used, where does it go?

Hello and welcome to our forums,

You should find the dialog hidden under the dialog with the {Next] button on it (the dialog from where you display the unused dialog when clicking on next). Each time you bind a dialog from another they will be added under a dialog chain in our "Dialogs" page. Just try to expand the dialog where you display the unused dialog from and you should see the hidden dialog.

All the best,
Daniel
