AFAIK such calls are made in a non interactive mode.
i.e. You can call another cript-fu, but have to pass its parameters in
the call - no dialog is displayed.
As a first suggestion, you might rty to get some parameters from
gimp-context, instead of having input widgets for them all: For
example BG e FG colors could be the currenctly active colors.
As a second suggestion, I see nothing short of you desingning a full
plug-in either in C, Python, or Perl, with a proper GTK interface.
There are some hacks that could be done with python-fu if you know
python but do not know GTK , like running a first script, saving the
parameters to a tmp file, and reading them back on a second script.
(ugly , but would get your job done, without GTKing).
A third way would be hacking python-fu or script-fu themselves in
order for they to make their main-dialogs a scrollable dialog. That
might not be imediate - but seems apropriate, maybe could be let as
an enhancement request for the GIMP. Maybe Kevin could do this for
you in Tiny-fu - an alternate scheme script engine for the GIMP he is
the maintainer of.

All,
Is it possible to call an interactive script from within an
interactive script?
Let me clarify...
If I call script-fu-test1, and I fill out the parameters and let it
compute, is it possible to have that script call another script
that asks me for more input parameters?
One case that I'm considering ...
I am trying to create a complete web-theme image gallery (buttons,
bullets, logos, etc) but there isn't enough space on a single input
form to gather all the information at once, so I want to break it
down by function, but starting with some base info.
So on the initial page I would set things like to fg & bg colors,
font type, sizes, etc, but then when it goes to create the bullets,
I can further refine how I want them created, and the same would go
for the other gallery types as well.
I've tryed registering my script-fu functions with gimp
(sucessfully), but I can't seem to find the proper way to call them
from within my script. Thought???
Is it even possible?
Thanks
Matt
