You can create a new screen and under general settings check Popup to convert the screen to a dialog. Leave Modal checked if you want to require the user to respond to the dialog before they can do anything else. Unchecking Modal will make the dialog more like a tool window. Once you sent the screen as a popup you can move and size its appearance on the screen.

I was asking for the other User Dialog, not the Login Screen.
Please refer the attached image for clarification.

Thanks,

Mishra,

What customization are you trying to do with this dialog? In my last response I indicated how to create custom dialogs in general.

You can access user information through the Globals.Security object. For example, the following code checks if logged in user is in a specific group:

Code:

public bool hasAccess(string reqGroup)
{
   string curUser = Globals.Security.CurrentUser;
   if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(curUser)) return false;
   
   foreach (ISecurityUser user in Globals.Security.Users)
   {
      if (user.Username == curUser)
      {
         foreach (ISecurityGroup sgroup in user.SecurityGroups)
         {
            if (sgroup.GroupName == reqGroup) return true;
         }
         return false;
      }
   }
   return false;
}
