Dxl exectuing during CPS application

During the application of a CPS Groups, i need to start a DXL to confirm some informations.
I Tried touse an object, post, save trigger to activate my dxl.
The dxl is basically a form with two fields to confirme the values and the Ok button.

The problem is that the trigger is activated, the form is displayed, but the CPS execution doesn´t wait the dxl execution. So, instead i have one windows per time, if my CPS group has 30 changes, i have 30 forms oppened at the same time.

Is it posible to set something like "priority" to make the CPS wait the dxl execution to continue?

How about "block" ing the form instead of "show" ing it? This will make DOORS wait till the script ends. Maybe this helps, regards, Mathias

Dialogs intended for 'show' are structured a little different than those intended for 'block'. For blocked dialogs, the 'close' callback should simply 'release' the DB. The 'block' command should be followed by a 'destroy' command. See here for an example:

Also, code following a 'block' is executed but code following a 'show' is not.
show(db)
errorBox("If you ever see this then Louie is wrong")
...
block(db)
infoBox("You see this after the dialog is 'release'd")
