Detect when Polygon closed

[mdhiggins]

Hello,

I am writing a macro to outline crystals in an image.

The user outlines the crystal with the polygon tool. Then I want a message to pop up then asking if the outline is correct. This is what I have tried. However, I can't work out how to determine when the user has closed the polygon and the message should pop up.

do
{
setTool("polygon");

// something is needed here to show when polygon is closed by user.

outline_OK = getBoolean("Is outline correct?");

}
while (outline_OK==false) ;

Cheers  Michael

Micheal,
Maybe you could just use
waitForUser("Please draw your polygon and click OK");
