Using existing dialog boxes

Journaling / NXOpen API

With NXOpen is it possible to use an existing dialog box and then add some more functionality?

For instance, I would like to create a program that shows the 'Offset Curve in Face' dialog and then when the user selects 'OK' the program creates the offset curve and then the offset curve is used to create a 'Law Extension'.

Is it possible to call the 'Offset Curve in Face' dialog box from an NXOpen program or do I need to create my own using the Block UI Styler?

Thanks,
Dennis

The NXOpen API does not give you access to the existing command dialog boxes. You'll need to modify your workflow or create your own dialog.

I kind of figured that was the case but thought I would ask just in case. Thanks for your help.
