Share My Creation B4X Template Code Generator 1.00

I have created this code generator, using a code template to use the same name as the views in the layout.

The B4X Dialog Custom template (B4XPreferenceDialog) generates the necessary class to create the dialog using the names of the designer views.

The Layout as class template creates a class that allows you to use the designer view names directly from the class. If the layout has more chained layouts like "scrollview1" it will try to find the layout with the same name ("scrollview1.bal") add it to the class with the same names of the views that we put in the designer.

I used Erel's layout to JSON converter: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...e-layouts-files-to-json-and-vice-versa.41623/
