Fill ROI holes does not work.

[Ed Siefker]

How do I close holes in a selection?  Image->Selection->Fill ROI Holes
does not work.

e.g. create an image with this code:

newImage("Untitled", "8-bit black", 1024, 1024, 1);
makeOval(252, 293, 390, 376);
setForegroundColor(255, 255, 255);
run("Fill", "slice");
setForegroundColor(0, 0, 0);
makeOval(402, 430, 148, 143);
run("Fill", "slice");
run("Select None");

Then create a selection from that image:


run("Auto Threshold", "method=Shanbhag white");
run("Create Selection");
roiManager("Add");

From here, Fill ROI Holes does nothing.  How do I fill this hole?
Thanks

Oh.  I guess Fill ROI Holes is a GUI only function?   It's not enough
to run it, you have to click on the image.

How can I fill holes in an ROI from a macro?

Dear Ed,

If you replace the last two lines with:

run("Analyze Particles...", "include add");

The whole is now part of your selection.
