Hey all, new to ImageJ and was trying to make a macro to run OrientationJ on images and save the distribution of fiber orientation.  I am able to save an image of the distribution but unable to get the macro to "click" a button within a pop up figure and then save that as a txt file.  Could anyone help me with what's missing in my macro?  Thanks so much!

Screenshots to better describe my problem:
Here OrientationJ takes the image (StretchingIntima-25strain...) and makes a nice distribution of the orientations of the fibers which pops up as the window titled "S-distribution-1"

From there I'd like the macro to use the "List" button on the bottom left of the S-distribution-1 window to create another pop up labeled "Plot Values"

From there I think I can get it to save the plot values as a txt file but getting the extra window to pop up has me puzzled...

current section of the macro that I have...
// Blue channel
// Save the blue channel
saveAs("Tif", dir2+"Blue"+list[i]);
//Run OrientationJ with settings
run("OrientationJ Distribution", "log=0.0 tensor=1.0 gradient=0 min-coherency=70.0 min-energy=2.0 harris-index=on s-distribution=on hue=Orientation sat=Coherency bri=Original-Image ");
//choose distribution window and save image
selectWindow("S-Distribution-1");
saveAs("Tif", dir2+"dist"+list[i]);

//something here to use List button and save that as txt

// Close the blue channel
close();
