function reply=AskQ1(window,message,textColor,bgColor,replyFun,rectAlign1,rectAlign2,fontsize)
% reply = Ask(window,message,[textColor],[bgColor],[replyFun],[rectAlign1],[rectAlign2],[fontSize=30])
%
% Draw the message, using textColor, right-justified in the upper right of
% the window, call reply=eval(replyFun), then erase (by drawing text again
% using bgColor) and return. The default "replyFun" is 'GetClicks'. You may
% want to use 'GetChar' or 'GetString'.
% 
% "rectAlign1" and "rectAlign2", if present, are applied after the above
% alignment. The values should be selected from: RectLeft, RectRight,
% RectTop, RectBottom. Alternatively you can pass in one of the strings
% 'left','top','right','bottom','center'.
%
% If you want to align the text to a different rectangular box than the
% window, then pass the rectangle defining that box as argument
% 'rectAlign1', and the wanted alignment as argument 'rectAlign2', e.g.,
% if rectAlign1 = [400 300 600 400] and rectAlign2 = 'center', then the
% text 'message' would get centered in the box with left-top corner
% (400,300) and right-bottom corner (600,400).
%
% "fontSize" is the font size you want text typed in; will restore old
% fontsize before returning.
%
% Typical uses:
% reply=Ask(window,'Click when ready.'); % Wait for (multiple) mouse clicks, return number of clicks.
% reply=Ask(window,'What''s your name?',[],[],'GetString'); % Accept keyboard input, but don't show it.
% reply=Ask(window,'Who are you?',[],[],'GetChar',RectLeft,RectTop); % Accept keyboard input, echo it to screen.
%
% See also GetString.

% 3/9/97  dgp	Wrote it, based on dhb's WaitForClick.m
% 3/19/00  dgp	Suggest turning off font smoothing. Default colors.
% 8/14/04  dgp	As suggested by Paul Thiem, added an example (and better argument checking) 
%               to make it clear that replyFun must be supplied as a string and rectAlign1 as a value.
% 8/14/04  dgp	Call Screen 'WindowToFront'.
% 1/19/07  asg  Modified to work in OSX (for asg's purposes).
% 6/6/07   mk   remove Screen('WindowToFron') unsupported on PTB-3, other
%               small fixes...
