Prompting for multiple inputs in a journal?

Prompting for multiple inputs in a journal?

(OP)
Hello, I am trying to come up with a solution to expedite a process. What I want to do is, pause my journal execution so the user can pull up the measure bodies menu and measure the model. After the model is measured, I want to then continue execution by pushing a button. The reason for this is that my journal is doing different things, and before it finishes execution I would like to grab a screenshot of the models volume. So my thoughts were to pause the journal while the user prepares the screen for a screenshot. When the user is done, the journal can grab the screenshot and copy into a spreadsheet. I could always do this manually, but it would be nice if I could just include this in my journal execution. It would be faster.

Can this be done? I know you can take screenshots, but can you pause execution while the user interacts with NX?
