### Description

An instance of the DialogViewGenerator class can be used to visualize a built-in dialog box through an image. It manages a [ServerVisualization.UserInput](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol-servervisualization/userinput/llms-full.txt) and a [ServerVisualization.View](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol-servervisualization/view/llms-full.txt) object. These objects can be used to inform the generator about user input and to get a generated view depending on the input.

### Syntax

```csharp
public class DialogViewGenerator : Component
```

```vbnet
Public Class DialogViewGenerator
    Inherits Component
```

### Examples

The following example includes the activation state value from a Dialog View Generator object in application diagnostics. The created object is then available to the surrounding document workflow.

```csharp
Console.WriteLine($"Activation State: {dialogViewGenerator.ActivationState}");
Console.WriteLine("Dialog View Generator is ready for use.");
```

```vbnet
Console.WriteLine($"Activation State: {dialogViewGenerator.ActivationState}")
Console.WriteLine("Dialog View Generator is ready for use.")
```

- [DialogViewGenerator.CaretStateChanged Event](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol-servervisualization/dialogviewgenerator/caretstatechanged-event/llms-full.txt): Occurs when the state of the caret (size, position, visibility) has been changed. The event handler receives an argument of type ServerVisualization.CaretStateEventArgs containing data related to this event.
- [DialogViewGenerator.Closed Event](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol-servervisualization/dialogviewgenerator/closed-event/llms-full.txt): Occurs after the dialog box has been closed through clicking the Ok or Cancel button. The event handler receives an argument of type EventArgs containing data related to this event.
- [DialogViewGenerator.ShowDialogBox Event](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol-servervisualization/dialogviewgenerator/showdialogbox-event/llms-full.txt): Occurs when the dialog box should show a further dialog box. The event handler receives an argument of type ServerVisualization.ShowDialogBoxEventArgs containing data related to this event.
