I'm attempting to use CreateDialog to demonstrate a 3D Plot to users who are not Mathematica-ly inclined. Unfortunately, when I try to do so, using something like this piece of code:

            CreateDialog[ExpressionCell[Plot3D[Sin[x + y^2], {x, -3, 3}, {y, -2, 2}]]]

the Plot can no longer be rotated, zoomed, or panned. This limits the usefulness of the Dialog, so I'd very much like to fix this. Any suggestions?

You can set options in ExpressionCell:

CreateDialog[
 ExpressionCell[
  Plot3D[Sin[x + y^2], {x, -3, 3}, {y, -2, 2}, 
   SphericalRegion -> True], Selectable -> True, Deployed -> False]]
