Hi Daniel, runPropertyDialog will override getPropertyDescriptionList. If you have both in your behavior, only runPropertyDialog will be called. This means that you will have to build the MUI dialog box yourself if you use runPropertyDialog. You can find a demo movie that does something similar at: <http://nonlinear.openspark.com/tips/xtras/mui/dynamic/> This is not for the faint-hearted.
