Google Apps Script Spreadsheets - Assign script to image from a script

Question

I want to generate images with a script assigned to it using another script. I know you can insert images from a script link here, but I can't find a way to assign a script to that image from a script. I found someone requesting this feature here, but with no solution or workaround. If someone knows any way to insert a button that runs a script from another script into a spreadsheet, I would like to know it.

Edit: I have thought about using a trigger that would get the event source container and run a script on cell edit described here sort of, but I would love a gui.

Answer 1

This would be a cool feature, but here is a possible workaround, it might even offer more functionality.

You can build a UI using Google API.

More detailes here.

The UI allows you to create side bars/menus/etc. You could even create floating dialog windows. Using AbsolutePanel, you can even choose where the dialogue shows up.
