What you have here is fine.
There was a lot of time and effort into creating the slides.
Of course, as the list of objects is add to or removed from,
one would have to rebuild the dialogs and create slides.
What you did not state is how the information provided
to the program is stored?
Is all the information- slide name/file name - [buried] inside a LSP/FAS file?
Is the information recorded into an external (configuration) file
which is then read and the dialog build on the spot?
For simple "icons" such as you show, personally I would create
vector images where the vector information is stored inside an
external file. From there I would parse the vector information,
check for corresponding block name and build the dialog.
The contents of this external file would visually look like a PAT file...
The benefit of this method is the slides in the directories would
go away.
Regarding the third-party software as described in message #3:
Company policy may not allow the install of the required plugin
module to run such program - especially if there are 100's of
workstations.
I have created and have limited testing of a "Vector Image Writer"
which simplifies the making of vector information. Just trace on
top of what you have. There are other vector generators out there
both paid and free, but as of today, I have not tested these out.
[I could be wrong, but other programming languages would require
some sort of image file, for each pane, to replicate what you have in
lieu of the vector method I am discussing].
