We opted for parsing the pages of the old supervisor into an XML file respecting the standards of a Windows Vision. Once this is done we will browse the generated XML files and then, by scripting in a Designer scope, we will inject the pages into the Ignition project.

Based on that idea I tried feeding the xml code of a few example windows into different chatbots and prompting them to create new windows based on that. While it did work better than expected with GPT4 and not only made a correct layout it even was able to assign small scripts to components. I still don't think that it is viable since the xml… > [@ActionAdapter Method](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/actionadapter-method/87612): > > Hey I came across this amazig post [Create Windows Vision from a script - Ignition - Inductive Automation Forum](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/create-windows-vision-from-a-script/56094) and through that had a look at the underlying xml files for the vision windows and I would like to learn more about it especially the ActionAdapter method (com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.binding.action.ActionAdapter) that seems to be used to assign the java.awt.events to the components.

My j… Note the last forum post about actually doing ActionAdapter stuff programatically seems to be uniformly discouraged and a headache. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/vision-project-resource-editing-via-xml/115093)._
