Bug in Measure Function

[roberto aranibar]

I’m not sure if this is just me doing something wrong or if this is a bug in
the Measure function…

After adding several ROIs (anywhere from 20 to several hundred) to the ROI
Manager, I measure them all. My measurement settings have the Display Label
option checked. However, when the labels are displayed in the results
window, only the filename and not the ROI name is displayed for several of
the ROIs (e.g. What should read “11000x_Mosaic:o5m” is only displayed as
“11000x_Mosaic”). I don’t know why this only happens to some of the ROIs.

This still happens to those same problematic ROIs even if I measure them
one-by-one, and even if I directly use the Analyze>Measure or Ctrl+M
directly, not from the ROI Manager. The only way I’ve seen this corrected
(sometimes) is by renaming the ROI and then measuring again. This is very
tedious to do for hundreds of ROIs though.

I am using the latest upgrade (v.1.37d).

Has anybody also had this problem, or does anyone have any insight as to why
this may be happening? I see no rhyme or reason for why some ROIs fail to
display their name in the label, while others do ok.

Thanks,

Roberto

This is fixed in ImageJ 1.37e, available at
<http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/notes.html>. There was a bug that caused
the ROI name to be lost when the ROI was edited by holding down the
shift or alt key.
