getDirectory(string) not showing title

[Charles P. Daghlian]

Good morning,

I have a macro that uses the get.Directory macro command. It is no longer using the argument from get.Directory(“name”) as the title of the dialog. The macro has several points requiring selection of a directory, so the lack of a title makes it unclear what is to be selected. It used to work.

I am using ImageJ 1.50e on OS X 10.11.1.

Any thoughts?

Chuck

Hi Charles,

OS X 10.11 El Capitan removed the title bar from native directory choosers.

For more details, see:
  http://fiji.sc/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1188

Here is a workaround posted by Wayne Rasband:

Curtis
