Fiji/ImageJ Overlay Option dialog box question

[tongtao]

 Hi,

I have a question regarding the Overlay Options dialog box in Fiji/ImageJ.
I am using (Fiji Is Just) ImageJ 2.1.0/1.53f23; Java 1.8.0_172 [64-bit];
Windows 10 10.0

I am trying to figure out what the “Apply” checkbox does. The documentation
<https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/docs/guide/146-28.html#sub:Overlay-Options...>
didn’t mention the “Apply” checkbox.

[image: Overlay Options]

I cannot find any reference of this dialog box in the manual. Can someone
help?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

without 'Apply' the Overlay Options dialog determines the default
values, i.e., the properties of overlays created in the future.

With 'Apply' you can, in addition, also modify the currently existing
overlay(s) of an image.

If you want to modify the properties of one (existing) overlay, you can
also long-click in it to select it, then use Edit>Selection>Properties
(y shortcut), and deselect it (Edit>Selection>Select None, shift-A
shortcut).
