How can I retrieve settings from a design dialog for use in a dialog?

I am working on creating a component with both a dialog and a design_dialog. In the design_dialog, I am using a pathfield widget to allow a designer to select a root path. In the dialog, I am trying to use another pathfield widget to allow the author to select a page under the path that was selected by the designer in the design dialog. (Basically I am trying to set the rootPath property of the widget in the dialog to equal the path the designer chose in the design_dialog.) It seems like it should be something simple to do, but I'm having no luck. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Adobe AEM uses ExtJS for the widgets (in Classic mode).

Here is a resource to get you started: http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/developing/widgets.html

Here is the API doc: http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6/widgets-api/index.html

And maybe have a look at this: http://labs.sixdimensions.com/blog/2014-04-07/cq-dialog-dynamically-generate-rootpath/
