thanks, - this turned out to be the answer for me:
Dialog.create("Arrow Attributes");
Dialog.addNumber("Width:", 51);
Dialog.addChoice("Color:", newArray("black", "white"));
Dialog.show();
width = Dialog.getNumber();
color = Dialog.getChoice();
for (i=0; i<nResults; i++) {
xh = getResult("xh",i);
xt = getResult("xt",i);
yh = getResult("yh",i);
yt = getResult("yt",i);
makeArrow(xt, yt, xh, yh, "notched");
Roi.setStrokeWidth(width);
Roi.setStrokeColor(color);
run("Draw", "slice");
}

Hi Leonard,
from the ImageJ Macro Functions Documentation at
https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/functions.html#makeArrow "See also: Roi.setStrokeWidth and Roi.setStrokeColor"
To me, this indicates that the interactive arrow options do not apply for arrows created by the 'makeArrow' macro command. You would have to create your own dialog for the options of the 'makeArrow' arrows.

I am trying to give users of a macro that I’m writing some flexibility in the size/color of arrows it draws outlining particle directionality.
From the Arrow Tool, users make choices about arrow "size/color/arrow head," but these changes are not being implemented when the arrows are drawn.
Is there a straightforward solution to this?
Here is the last bit of the macro, drawing lines between points identified earlier:
run("Arrow Tool...");
for (i=0; i<nResults; i++) {
xh = getResult("xh",i);
xt = getResult("xt",i);
yh = getResult("yh",i);
yt = getResult("yt",i);
makeArrow(xt, yt, xh, yh, "notched");
run("Draw", "slice");
}
