How can we do the same in touchUI/AEM6.3?

Hi 

I am not sure, if this would help you, but to create a custom property dialog, you would need to overlay it.

Link:- https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/kb/CQ5PageProps.html

//If you had a page component /apps/<myapp>/components/pages/contentpage that hassling:resourceSuperType=/libs/foundation/components/page then you would copy/libs/foundation/components/page/dialog to /apps/<myapp>/components/pages/contentpage/ to make an overlaid dialog

Link:- https://github.com/Adobe-Marketing-Cloud/aem-authoring-extension-page-dialog

Link:-http://www.slideshare.net/martinischeery/aem-61-user-interface-customisation

 

Now question would be reduces to how to fill default values dynamically?

Link:- http://experience-aem.blogspot.in/2015/02/aem-6-sp2-touch-ui-multi-field-component.html

if you want to fetch value from other component, then create a service/component that will use JCR API to fetch the information and later populate it.

 

Thanks and Regards

The tab you are referring to belongs to the page property dialog. We do not have a helpx community article on this. The dicsussions we have in Helpx are for custom components, not for site admin dialogs. 

I will search within adobe to see if anyone had done this use case.
