File.nameWithoutExtension

[Krs5]

Dear list and Wayne,

I recently noticed some problems with the function File.nameWithoutExtension()

If I open Fiji or ImageJ and run the macro code:

run("Blobs (25K)");
title=File.nameWithoutExtension();
print(title);

I get as result: "test_"

If I give this macro a name it will give as result the macro name.

I can repeat this multiple times, the result is the same.

If I open manually the blobs sample file, and run line 2 and 3 from the macro I get the same results.  If I open a locally saved file the result is "blobs". If I now run the 3 line macro again the results is "blobs", as expected

However, if I close Fiji, restart and open my images and run line 2 and 3 from the macro I get the macro name as result again.

Can anybody confirm this behaviour?

Best wishes

Hi Kees,

I see similar behavior. What File.nameWithoutExtension function actually
does is to return the filename of the last file opened by the Open or Save
dialog or by drag and drop [1, 2]. Opening a sample image via Open Samples
does not open an image using one of those mechanisms, and so it does not
"count" for the purposes of File.nameWithoutExtension.

Regards,
Curtis

Hi Kees,
If I have another opened image, it returns the name of that image, not the one
from "Blobs (25K)!

Maybe issuing to load the blobs image is not registered as the last opened
image?

Hi Kees,

the source code might help to understand what is happening:

```Java
String name = OpenDialog.getLastName();
if (name==null) return "";
int dotIndex = name.lastIndexOf(".");
if (dotIndex>=0 && (name.length()-dotIndex)<=5)
        name = name.substring(0, dotIndex);
return name;
```

It is necessary to use the OpenDialog to get a result from
nameWithoutExtension(). ``run("Blobs (25K)")`` and manually selecting
the sample image from the "File > Open Samples" menu use a different
mechanism to open an image.

Best regards
Michael

I see what happens. We opened the images via "Open Recent" as we were testing our macro and this is also not recorded for File.nameWithoutExtension. At least we know where the problem is.

Thanks for the replays.

Kees
