[ali_fath]

It will be Necessary to have these features in custom dialog input

1. Ability to set width & height of window.
2. Custom Favicon.
3. Be able to Input data into Custom Input Window besides of chaging html file for realtime Exchange data.
4. ability to Define Css & Js File to load with Html file other than style & script tags inside html file.
   5.Pressing enter and escape key click Buttons by choice.

some other RPA apps like “Winautomation” has these features, As they are so important to some work Situation,I hope to see them in UiPath soon.

Hi @ali_fath

Please check out the UiPath.Form.Activities:

It is still being improved, but does a lot more than the simple Custom Input activity

Hi,
Thank you for your suggestion. I added it to our internal ideas tracker for our team to consider.

Could i also submit for consideration changing the Custom Input so that it isnt reliant on IE7?
Maybe a browser selector much like the Open Browser activity?
I find i should be able to do so much more with Custom Input than the Form will ever do as far as adapting and changing on the fly.

Hi @davidtodd1972,
The Custom Input suppose to be on basic level of IE to be compatible with a simple forms of a HTML sites. However if you like to experiment just include in your file (can be in <title>) this:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge"/> - this is forcing to use Edge engine (allows for HTML5 features)
<!-- saved from url=(0016)http://localhost --> - this enables an automatic sandbox mode which additionally skips some prompts in the upper part of the window

Apart from that you should give a try to the Form activities. You can include there a Label component to which you can easily inject HTML code and with use of a input collection work with it like with the website.

Firstly thanks for the quick response.
Rather than back and forth i will attach my HTML so all can see what i am referring to.
In particular i am trying to hide and show sections (DIV) of the form based on selection.
I assumed that i couldn’t do that with Forms, but i will have another look based upon what you said.

<!-- saved from url=(0016)http://localhost --> - this is really useful thanks

the content=Edge just doesn’t work for me, i have found this listed as a suggestion elsewhere as well.

You can see that the sections do come and go but start shown which they shouldnt.
The dates are the real problem here

Hi @davidtodd1972

Just for the sake of completing the topic. It is completely possible to use Form for this use-case with its conditionals capacity

It would work like so:
