With permission of @ctrueden (see this gitter post) I'm merging this PR now. I tested it in the UI with the command from the tutorial, and it works beautifully. I didn't notice any breakage in other widgets. I did try to implement a unit test for this functionality, but didn't succeed getting it right... my work in progress is in c21f6a1. If someone manages to write a working unit test for this UI behavior, I think it would be great to have it. Otherwise, we might want to add a |

Currently, JComboBox items are not updated during DynamicCallbacks as noted in the comments of the DynamicCallback example - https://github.com/imagej/tutorials/blob/d3ff8e818bb26cb4713371878b239b36cb7d4877/maven-projects/dynamic-commands/src/main/java/DynamicCallbacks.java#L29-L31
@imagejan suggested implementing JComboBox updates in the doRefresh() method of SwingChoiceWidget to fix this problem on the forum - https://forum.image.sc/t/repaint-scijava-command-ui/42835/2
I quickly wrote a draft of this so that changes in the options of the dialog can update the JComboBox items. This is very useful for situations where you want one JComboBox to change items based on another.
