Get the results of the dialog

Background

Hello,
I want to get the string or boolean from the dialog.

from ij import IJ
from ij.gui import GenericDialog
from fiji.util.gui import GenericDialogPlus


num = 2

if num == 1:
	print("hi")
else:
	gdp = GenericDialogPlus("test")
	gdp.addChoice("Are you sure to analyze?",["YES","NO"],"NO")
	gdp.showDialog()
	AAA = gdp.getChoices()
	print(str(AAA))

#> [java.awt.Choice[choice14,164,47,51x22,invalid,current=NO]]

I would like to get a simple result, but I can’t get it. (e.g. “YES”, “NO” or “True or False”).
Is there any way to get result with out using regex?.

I’m using “GenericDialogPlus” because I want to include dialogs in my if statements, but I would like to use this if possible.

Apologies in advance if this is covered elsewhere, can’t find it easily. Thanks,

Hi Dan @11137 ,

I think you are searching for gdp.getNextChoice()

You can explore possibilities a bit more easilty from Integrated Development Environments such as IntellIJ or Eclipse as they come with great auto-completion:

You can read a bit more about combining jython scripts and IDEs in this blog post.

Let us know if this helps!

Cheers,
Robert

I’ve been developing in VSCODE, which is not very convenient and frustrating.
I will try to get it installed.

Big Thanks
Dan
