Summary
Function: DialogPlus( key avatar, string message, list buttons, integer channel, integer CurMenu );Creates a dialog menu for storing more then 12 buttons, very useful for Inventory items, Scanners, and just huge lists.
| • key | avatar | |||
| • string | message | – | message to be displayed | |
| • list | buttons | – | button labels | |
| • integer | channel | |||
| • integer | CurMenu | – | Parsed menu index. |
'CurMenu' will take place of an integer menuindex.
This requires a Listen Event when using DialogPlus to allow the Back and Next button to work.
