NXOpen access to dialog box fields
NXOpen access to dialog box fields
(OP)
I'm trying to access the information in the fields of dialog boxes via NXOpen. As an example if a user starts to create an extrude I want to be able to access the "Start" and "End" distance information any time they change it.
I know I can run functions when the menu button is activated, but before the dialog box opens, so I don't get the info I need that way.
I also know that I can access the finalized extrude information after the dialog box is closed, but this doesn't allow me to get the values as the user changes them.
Any help would be appreciated.

It would also be helpful in other ways, allowing us to indicate where the user is working - to prevent two users from each putting their own edge blends on the same edge(s) for example.

Sounds like a huge project any way you approach it.
You might have better luck using low level commands to hook into the NX dialog windows. Still a lot of work, and not easy; but probably easier than re-writing the entire NX UI.
