Hello All,

I'm working on a Python Add-In in which I'd like to have a button that opens the 'Change Layout' dialog window (see screenshot).  I've been poking around and haven't been able to come up with any code that will do this.  I tried simply dragging the button into a menu in the add-in, which works locally, but doesn't seem to stick when I copy Normal.mxt over for other users.  Anyone know if it's possible to open this dialog window via python?  Any feedback is appreciated!

I don't know of a way to open the template dialog. You could map to the mxt's location, my mxt's are located C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.2\MapTemplates\Traditional Layouts
