Dialog with Timeout?

I'm trying to use AI to build a wrapper for applying updates/patches to workstations in my company. I'd like to have a timeout so that after the message is display for some time (2 hours?) the window closes and install proceeds. For example, applying an update to VMWare Workstation. I'd like to put up a dialog saying "Close VMWare or I'll close it and break all your VMs". Give them 2 hours, then i'll kill the processes for vmware and install the update. Is that possible?

Re: Dialog with Timeout?

Hi and welcome to out forums,

To achieve what you need you can develop your own custom action code that will display the message and timeout as long as you need.

Then you can simply call your custom action from a dialog control (e.g. on a button push).

Hope this helped.

All the best,
Daniel
