Modeless Window with Ok Button

[rcb007]

I am looking for a method to walk a user through some steps within Autocad. I was hoping to have a modeless window that tells the user step by step process, but from Step 1 to Step 2 there would be a "OK" Button or similar to continue. I think that would give the user time to do the instructions then go onto the next step and so forth.

 

I usually like using the acet-ui-status commands, but I cannot get it work with the above scenario.

 

I also and looking at the dos_traywnd but it seems that it pops up for a few seconds before disappearing. 

 

Or maybe there is another way to do this.

 

Thank you again for your help!

Alert pops up a message box in the middle of the screen and waits for the user to click ok before continuing with the lisp.

(defun C:test ()
  (alert "\nHow to draw a line")
  (alert "\nFirst you need to start the command \n Either by typing "line" or clicking the line icon")
  (alert "\nAfter the command is running you will be prompted to pick a starting point")
  (vl-cmdf "_.Line" pause)
  (alert "\nNow pick an end point")
)
