Opening multiple tiff files at the same time

[Matt Twiddy]

Hi all,

This might be a simple question but I was wondering if there is a way to open multiple tiff image files at the same time without having to click each individually from the open menu. For the study I am doing I have to open 60 tiff files at the same time. I have tried "Shift" and ctrl commands which normally work in other programs but it will not with Image J. Any help will make my life much easier. Regards,

Instead of using the File>open command, you can independently open
the directory that has the files that you care about and drag them to
the ImageJ toolbar.

Drag and drop them to ImageJ toolbar.

Or drag and drop an entire folder onto ImageJ toolbar.

Or use "Import > Image Sequence" if they are slices of a stack.

Hi Matt,
Make sure that the "Use JFileChjosser to Open/Save is enable in  /Edit >
Options > Inpu/Output. /Then you should be able to select multiple file
in the open dialogue (might require to restart ImageJ).
