Extract the user input from dialog​

To grab user input, you can use this block to grab the value based on the dialog component id

Extract Dialog Component Value

In this example we extract the value of component id 5 which is the CheckBox and assign it to variable value. The value will receive boolean data types

Auto confirm with timeout​

The dialog show block also supports an optional timeout through its mutator. When the timeout is set, the dialog will automatically confirm after the specified number of milliseconds and continue macro execution with the current or default values.
