Hi Seth,
you can create a selection that is a circle with a cross missing at the center, see the following macro. It is movable and looks similar to what you describe:
xCenter=100;
yCenter=100;
radius=50;
crossRadius=20;
makeOval(xCenter-radius, yCenter-radius, 2*radius,2*radius);
setKeyDown("alt");
makeRectangle(xCenter-crossRadius, yCenter-1, 2*crossRadius,2);setKeyDown("alt");
setKeyDown("alt");
makeRectangle(xCenter-1, yCenter-crossRadius, 2, 2*crossRadius);
As far as I know, one cannot combine area and line selections with the ROI manager; that's what prevents us from having true crosshairs movable together with a circle.
