Here's one possible solution.
Presumably, the parent window created the modal window, so has a reference
to it. Before opening the modal window, the parent can do:
// Save the label object where the string will be placed
modalWindow.setUserData("parentField", myLabel);
The modal window can then, when it gets its "close" event, modify the
parent:
// "this" is the modal window
this.addListener("close",
function(e)
{
// Get the parent field to which we want to set the modal
window-obtained string
var parentField = this.getUserData("parentField");
// Get the value from the text field in the modal window
var string = textField.getValue();
// Set the parent field with the string value
parentField.setValue(string);
});
There are many other implementations to do the same thing, but this should
give you some ideas.
