How do I add buttons to a UI window like the ones in Routing Curve?

I tried to look at the code, but it links to something that I cant seem to access.

I'll send you one example, and clean it up to share for the rest of the forum… But for now:

In the predicate for the feature you can create a button type like:

    annotation { "Name" : "My Button" }
    isButton(definition.doSomething);

Also you need to include a new parameter in your editing logic function, so the function definition looks something like this:

export function myEditLogic(context is Context, id is Id, oldDefinition is map, definition is map, isCreating is boolean, specifiedParameters is map, hiddenQueries is Query, clickedButton is string) returns map
{

//do stuff
// …

    if (clickedButton == "doSomething")
    {
        definition.count = oldDefinition.count + 1;
        return anotherFunctionPerhaps(context, id, definition);
    }

//…

return definition;

}

When you "do stuff" you'll need to check for clickedButton (remember it will be a string) then… do something!

Thank you, this can be a solution for a few different UI needs...

Now if only my real work would slow down enough for me to just sit and code for a while
