Exit status of built-in command dialog

Question

Is there any way to get the exit status of a dialog tied to a built-in command? Take the script below...// do some stuff
app.executeMenuCommand("Path Blend Options");
// do some more stuffIf the user cancels the built-in dialog that pops up for "Blend Options" I don't want to continue with "do some more stuff". I have looked through tons of ExtendScript Debugger variables and the docs, and I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @jduncan, I couldn't find a way. It might not be possible.

One crazy idea hack I thought of, that should work, was to export the selection, eg. Document.exportSelectionAsAi(tempFile) before and after the dialog and compare them: assume if they are identical in content that the user cancelled the dialog? Maybe SVG would be better because easier to compare.
