Hello,

Your question is a bit unclear.
What means user mode?
neobook has a designtime-mode and a runtime-mode.
But neobook has no commands for adding pages or save pages in runtime-mode.
Designtime-mode runs from the neobook IDE and supports a Debugging-Dialog.

Hello,

neosoftware has answered your similar question here:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=21997

So neobook has no Actions to add pages or objects at runtime.
You might fake it, by adding hidden objects to your Pub and move them onto the page and make then visible.

Or you may have a look at my pdscript-plugin or at pdscript itself:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18808&hilit=pdscript

Other dev-enviroments might also Support dynamic Gui-creation.
You could also write a Delphi-plugin (or other languages) to add Gui-Elements on runtime.

I have never used "toolbook" but different programs use the same terminology (like page and user-mode) to mean different things ... best to describe a specific application you want to build with NeoBook and invite people to suggest solutions ... perhaps you can describe (in detail) a clear example of a "possibility".

I am not sure what you are trying to create dynamically to require pages to be built in run time. I had a problem where I needed to display data that would vary and I needed to collect data and change data in a database. My work around was to make a form generator in HTML and then a form processor that would collect the data. This way, NB simply displayed a html page that I could generate. The page will look different based on the information you feed the form generator. I use this in several of my applications.

You can see it here. A demo is available. All done in NB code:
