v0.3.0 - 2018-03-04

Added

Added New-Prompt as an alias for New-AnyBoxPrompt. New parameters include:

• -Tab: show prompts in a tab control view.
• -Group: group prompts in a group box.
• -FontSize, -FontFamily, -FontColor, -Alignment: allows the ability to have prompts of different sizes, colors, etc.
• -ShowSetAs: controls how a set (specified by -ValidateSet is displayed). The default is a dropdown (combo) box, but users can specify 'Radio' or 'Radio_Wide'.
• -RadioGroup: When -ShowSetAs is one of 'Radio' or 'Radio_Wide', each set of options in -ValidateSet is in one group. Use -RadioGroup to designate the group to which a set of radio buttons belongs.
• -ShowSeparator: When specified, a horizontal line is shown beneath the prompt.
• -Collapsible: When specified, the prompt is shown within a collapsible expander control.

New parameters for Show-AnyBox include:

• -MaxHeight, -MaxWidth: used to control the maximum size of the window.
• -CollapsibleGroups: if specified and prompt group(s) are specified, the groups are placed in a collapsible expander control, rather than a group box.
• -AccentColor: controls the color of lines in group boxes, expander boxes, and separator lines.
• -PrepScript: accepts a script block to run before the window is shown.

New function New-AnyBoxButton (alias New-Button) to wrap around the new object type AnyBox.Button. Parameters for this function include:

• -Name: the unique key name for the button.
• -Text: the text to display on the button. If -Name is not specified, the value for -Text serves as the key.
• -IsCancel: designates the button to serve as the cancel button.
• -IsDefault: designates the button to serve as the default button.
• -OnClick: accepts a script block to run when the button is clicked.
