A message box displays the current value of `OptionInteger`.

## Open options page

In this section, you'll add a Command and an event for the button to open the options page

1. First add a file called OpenPageCommand.cs.

3. Then, open *OpenPageCommand.cs* and change your Execute method.

```csharp
private void Execute(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ThreadHelper.ThrowIfNotOnUIThread();
Type optionsPageType = typeof(OptionPageCustom);
Instance.package.ShowOptionPage(optionsPageType);
}
```

3. Run the project, then click the Invoke button (it is under the Tool option by default), then you can see your options page is opened.

5. More details about opening options page can refer to the following documents
