Thanks in advance,

I could imagine that Repository.CustomCommand could be the way to do it. But actually I don't know. Maybe someone else has figured it out?

I've spend quite some time on this and i don't think it's possible, at least not from regular/dialog/project browser scripts. Luckily for my purposes (i needed the ability to open custom dialogs from script, like eg a selection list of diagrams) it turned out there was another solution.  :)

Still it would be a welcome feature so i too am interested if someone has managed to use eg CustomCommand for this.
