How to hide value input on start of command?
Hello,
You may have to give initial value "True" when create "fillet_cb". It meant you intend to show "fillet_in" command input by default. Otherwise you should hide "fillet_in" right away after it is created.
fillet_cb = inputs.addBoolValueInput('fillet_cb','Add Corner Fillets', False,'', True)
Thanks,

Here's a slight variation of your add-in that seems to be working as expected. The main thing I did to address your question is that I set the isVisible property of the ValueCommandInput to False right after it's created. That stops it from being displayed when the dialog first appears. That was the main problem. I also fixed a couple of issues where you defining the ui variable so it was failing when trying to display some errors (because I didn't have the resource files). Another change that I made that you might want to change back is that I changed one of the arguments when creating the bool value input to be a check box. Because it has an image assigned to it, it still looks like a button but now it behaves like a check box in that it has two states, pressed and unpressed, which I think is what you might want. A typical button doesn't really have states but is just used to notify you want it's clicked.
