Prompt user for input during installation

Hello PSADT Team,

first of all, a big thank you for your great work.
I use the PSADT for almost every application and I love it!!!


I miss a function to get information from the users. I was thinking of a function similar to "Show-InstallationPrompt" only for the input of a string where I can assign the input of the user to a variable.


I know I could do it like in the following post (https://discourse.psappdeploytoolkit.com/t/prompt-user-for-input-during-install/852), but in these times, where users are becoming more and more cautious (which is a very good thing), it would be nice if the query was in PSADT design.

I would use the function to ask the user for an individual product key, for example.
An option to also use the text box for passwords (input hidden by asterisks) would be great. It would also be nice if there was a Cancel button next to the OK button, which would then return $False, for example.


I have attached two visual examples.


Thanks!

Stefan

    I could use this as well, especially where each user has a unique code.
