Link group popup to custom Property Page in the Application Options

deleted-user-WOOhbEScR4vX

Hi,

I am trying to add a popup to my group which links to a custom Property Page in the Application Options. Therefore I am using the ID of the Property Page in the "launcherButtonID"-Attribute of the group, but this does not seem to work. 

Here a snippet of my config.daml:

Hi Oliver

The launcherButtonID attribute can be set to the ID of a button only. You could create a button that launches your property page in your property sheet. And then you could add this button's ID to the group's launcherButtonID attribute.

I used the SDK PropertySheet template and here is the code snippet for this:

<SPAN class="token tag"><SPAN class="token tag"><SPAN class="punctuation token"><</SPAN>group</SPAN> <SPAN class="attr-name token">id</SPAN><SPAN class="attr-value token"><SPAN class="punctuation token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN>LaunchPropertyPage_Group1<SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN></SPAN> <SPAN class="attr-name token">caption</SPAN><SPAN class="attr-value token"><SPAN class="punctuation token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN>Group 1<SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN></SPAN> 
<SPAN class="attr-name token">appearsOnAddInTab</SPAN><SPAN class="attr-value token"><SPAN class="punctuation token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN>true<SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN></SPAN> <SPAN class="attr-name token">launcherButtonID</SPAN><SPAN class="attr-value token"><SPAN class="punctuation token">=</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN>LaunchPropertySheet_MyNewPropertySheet_ShowPropertySheet<SPAN class="punctuation token">"</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">></SPAN></SPAN>
