Delta Vision stacker: define range problem/file recognition problem

[ctsiantar]

I'm trying to integrate a macro into a program that converts a delta vision file into a composite RGB file, however i have run into two problems:

name=getTitle()
if (name == "*" + ".dv"){
trying to identify a delta vision file doesnt seem to work with having a wildcard followed by .dv, is there a way to return just the file extension? am i using the wildcard incorrectly?(i have tried with *.dv aswell)

n=nSlices
        setBatchMode(false);
rename("DV1");
        ;run("Make Substack...", "  slices=1-nSlices-3");
        rename("C1");
;selectWindow("DV1")
        ;run("Make Substack...", "  slices=2-n-3");
        rename("C2");
;selectWindow("DV1")
        ;run("Make Substack...", "  slices=3-n-3");
        rename("C3");
;selectWindow("DV1")
close()
        ;run("Merge Channels...", "c1=C1 c2=C2 c3=C3 create");
        setBatchMode(true);
}else

this is the other big problem, i need the macro to be able to create a composite of any dv file of any number of slices, and i cant seem to find a method of inputting this number (nSlices) into the substack function either as a function or variable.

Any help on either problem would be greatly appreciated

Try:

name=getTitle();
if (endsWith(file, ".dv"){


For the substack I think you can use:
run("Make Substack...", "  slices=3-"+n+"-3"); or run("Make Substack...", "  slices=3-"+nSlices+"-3")

Hope is works

[ctsiantar]

works like a charm again!

This should be the last step in the cataloguing macro, unless my supervisor can come up with something new!

Many thanks for your help,
