Hi Steven,

here is an example for how to use the WaitForUser Dialog.
It works well in my case; the "dialog finished" message appears after I click OK.

import ij.IJ;
import ij.plugin.PlugIn;
import ij.gui.*;

public class WaitForUserTest implements PlugIn {

    public void run(String arg) {
        IJ.setTool("point");
        WaitForUserDialog wfd = new WaitForUserDialog("Test",
                "Select the point and press OK when done");
        wfd.show();
        IJ.log("dialog finished");
    }
}

As I said, it won't work in the message queue, so you must not call the WaitForUserDialog from any of the MouseListener, KeyListener, DialogListener etc, callbacks such as keyPressed, mouseDragged, dialogItemChanged, ...
