** How to use the license agreement dialog **

In HTML Executable,

1) on the "Dialog Boxes" page, click "XML" and "Import page from XML file".
2) choose "licenseagreement.xml"
3) you are prompted to choose the identifier: leave it to "userLicenseDialog".
4) in the list, double-click on "License Agreement Dialog" and insert your own EULA between the <textarea> tags.
5) on the "User Scripts" page, a new script called "userLicenseDialog" was created. You do not need to modify it. However, you need to invoke the license agreement. For instance, if you want to show it at startup, edit the "UserMain" script.
And add this code:

procedure ShowLicenseAgreement;
begin
 // Should we display the license agreement ?
 if GetGlobalVar("licagree", "0") <> "1" then
 begin
  DisplayCustomDialog("userLicenseDialog", true);
  if GetGlobalVar("licagree", "0") <> "1" then
  begin
   // User pressed ALT+F4 to close the screen.
   ExitPublication;
  end;
 end;
end;

6) Locate the OnStartMainWindow event (still in UserMain script) and replace it with:

procedure OnStartMainWindow;
begin
 // When the main window is going to be displayed (just before the homepage is shown).
 ShowLicenseAgreement;
end;

Explanation: the procedure checks whether the EULA was already shown to the end user. If not, the dialog box is displayed. If the user chooses "I disagree" or close the dialog without clicking "I agree", the program exits.
Otherwise, its acceptance is then saved in a persistent global variable. Next time, the dialog box will not be displayed.

** About the dummy dialog **

You can use this dialog as a template for your own dialogs.
