Hi,

in my setup, I have some buttons to start activities like "Watch TV", "Watch Blu-ray" etc.
I would like to extend some of those to offer a choice for an output device, eg. watch a Blu-ray on the TV screen or the projector.
I'm thinking along the lines of a pop-up dialog box or a kind of menu that pops up when pressing the activity button.
This could be done with hidden pages or un/hiding buttons and panels.
But I think it would be much more versatile to generate these dynamically using ProntoScript.

Unfortunately, by default we only get GUI.alert(), which is kinda useless in that context.
I've checked some of the ancient wisdom postings and it seems that the only way is to code the functionality myself.

Before I start reinventing the wheel: is there already an implementation of a dialog box of some sort available out there?
For now, the only thing I'm looking for would be a popup that offers two choices, so nothing too fancy...
