Description
Displays a decision dialog box with a title, icon, message, two buttons, and an opt-out checkbox.
If messageText is null or whitespace, an ArgumentNullException is thrown.
If messageText is longer than 512 characters, it is truncated and the full message is logged to the console in markdown format.
If any button's text is longer than 64 characters, an ArgumentException is thrown.
The default button is the Yes button. If the user presses the enter key (return key on macOS), the Yes button is clicked. The other button is the No button. If the user presses the escape key or closes the dialog, the No button is clicked. On macOS, the orientation of the buttons might be horizontal or vertical depending on the length of the message.
If optOutKey is not a valid XML tag, or more than 127 characters long, an ArgumentException is thrown. Care should be taken to ensure that the key is unique to the dialog box being displayed to prevent conflicts. The API takes care of the stored decision, so you do not need to check the value of the key before displaying the dialog box. Users can reset the decision in Editor Preferences.
The decision is only stored if the user checks the opt-out checkbox and clicks the Yes button.
The following example demonstrates how to display a decision dialog box with a warning icon, a title, a message, Yes and No buttons, and an opt-out checkbox.
Produces the following dialog box on macOS:
