Hi.

Is there any API samples on how to create a dialog window/create the side panel in Acrobat?

I would like to create a dialog window for the user to input their name, age, etc. rather than directly entering in the field. Or it can be a side panel for the user to input the values that they want.

Any advice?

I appreciate your advice.

For dialogs, you would use a UI framework you are familiar with. The Acrobat SDK comes with a wxWidgets based plug-in example. There is no method to add a side panel.

    Thank you very much for your advice. I was able to create dialog using wxWidget. While I was surfing around the web, I found out that some product were able to produce a side panel that looks different from the Acrobat default side panel. Any ideas on how to create something similar to this?
