Opening commands

Sam Smith
Hi all-

I'm a novice user of image J, and I'm trying to figure out if I can automate
some of these repetitive commands.  Specifically, I am using BIO Formats to
import a *.dv file and then enhance contrast to every file I open.  I would
like to know if there is a way that I can use a command line instruction so
that I can just double click file of the .dv type and have them import into
Image J using BIO Formats.  Also, is there a way I can have Image J enhance
the contrast by the standard 0.4% upon open of each file without having to
select this through the GUI?

Thanks!

Hi Sam,
Have you tried using macros? You can go to plug-ins>macros>record and then perform the operations you want. The macro recorder will record the commands for you. You can then re-run the commands using the macro (and arrays if you have multiple files).

I hope that helps.
