Is there a way to make an Illustrator prompt input no echo?

[glibshaft]

I am using the 'prompt' function as part of a much larger UI to allow installing of requisite pieces of code and actions to a users Mac. The prompt is for inputting a password, so only certain users are able to install the required elements. Prompts by default are not set to no echo, so was wondering if anyone knew a way to alter, upon user input, to no echo to hide the input password (as per the screeenshot)?

I can always write a UI pop up dialogue window that is no echo but just wanted to know if the above is possible at all.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know if there is a way to do that in ExtendScript; AppleScript's `display dialog` has a `with hidden answer` option to achieve it.

on run
  tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
    set retval to display dialog "Please enter the password:" default answer "" with title "Password" with hidden answer
  end tell
end run

Ahh, this may be an option as it is doing what I need it to, was hoping to keep it in Extendscript if at all possible, but will investigate.

Thanks for the info.

I have ended up keeping this with Extendscript so have just written a mini dialog with no echo that then passes the string back to main code to deal with.
