Oval Profile Plugin

[PedroJGouveia]

Hello,

I have been trying to use the Oval Profile Plugin (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/plugins/download/Oval_Profile.java) to do pixel summing in a FFT image.

However I haven´t been able to use the plugin at all. I found the following indication but it did not work:
"1. copy the oval_profile code text from the website.
 2. paste it in notepad
 3. save it as "oval_profile.java" in plugin directory.
 4. open your image in imageJ.
 5. make an oval selection.
 6. plugin>compile and run...
 7. select "overall_profile.java" in browse menu."

If someone could help me out with this situation it would be great.

Thank you for your time,

Pedro J. Gouveia

You need to respect the letter case of the class, in this instance it should
be: Oval_Profile.java

No need to paste it in notepad.
Just download it to the plugins folder, then

It should run OK, then restart IJ, or go to Help>Update Menus and only then
you can:

> 7. select "overall_profile.java" in browse menu."

You might try following the installation instructions from this page next...

http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/plugins/oval-profile.html

The compiler throws some warnings, but the plugin still works for me.  Here's a macro I used to test it.

run("AuPbSn 40 (56K)");
//setTool("oval");
makeOval(126, 113, 170, 261);
run("Oval Profile", "number=30 analysis=[Maximum Intensity] show");

Cheers,
Ben

You might know about the Fiji distribution of ImageJ? It was designed
particularly with help such as you desire in mind.

With Fiji, you can open the script editor with File-New-Script, paste the
code, select Java in the Language menu, and Run the plugin.

No further steps required.

Ciao,

I was able to run the plugin and so far so good!
Nevertheless I will also try Fiji.

Thanks again for the advices!
