Analyze Particles Keeps Freezing

[Wilson R S (AT)]

I am using Analyze particles through a macro, but occasionally it
freezes at about 50% for no apparent reason.

I am using about 15 times through a loop in the macro, and it is taking
me about 3-5 attempts to get through without it freezing.

 

Has anyone had similar or have an ideas?

It is hard to tell without seeing the macro or at least more details.  
However, if you are opening lots of images within each loop you should  
make sure that each gets closed at the end of the loop.  Otherwise  
you'll find that memory may become an issue.


for (i =0; i < n; i++){

    <create some image here>
    id = getImageID();
    <do some stuff here>
    selectImage(id);
    close();

} // end of loop
