Implementing user help

[IJperson]

Hi everyone.

I have a macro, and I want to add a button to pop up a user help guide. Is there a standard format people tend to use for macro help in ImageJ?

Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,


You can make your set of macros as a set of tools and put them together in a
toolset macro file this .txt file you should place in the imageJ >macros >
toolset folder.

The way to do it is described in detail on
http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/macros.html#tools



 You can use the following in your macro, add more .addMessage for more
lines


Dialog.create("CLUSTER ANALYSIS STEP 1 OPTIONS");
Dialog.addMessage("DO NOT CHANGE ANY VALUES UNTIL - you have performed
visual inspection of images!");
Dialog.addMessage("This tool works with hyperstacks also - but right now is
designed for apposition/colocalizn of only 2 channels");
Dialog.addMessage(" In this option menu it assumes only a three channel
image but the step1 tool will help you elimiinate extras") ;
Dialog.show();


best
