The ImageJ 1.54i3 daily build fixes a bug that caused the “OK” and “Cancel”
buttons to be beyond the edge of GenericDialog windows when addToSameRow() was
called just before showDialog(). The addToSameRow() method was not intended to
put “OK” and “Cancel” buttons on the same row as the last defined widget.

Shift+Ctrl+G works for me in GenericDialogs to capture the screen. Crop to get
just the window.
