Print a string to a custom table

[PEARSON Matthew]

Hi all,

How can I print a string to rows of a custom made table?  When i try to do it, it inputs zeros instead, it works fine for numbers.  Also if i used the Results table how do you use getResult() with strings, i keep getting NaN.

Thanks,

Matt

//Create overall results table
title1 = "Overall Results";
title2 = "["+title1+"]";
f = title2;
if (isOpen(title1)) {}
else {
        run("Table...", "name="+title2+" width=1800 height=600");
        //Table headings
        print(f, "\\Headings:Measurement\tName\tDistance");
}
image_name = "1 25.ome.tiff";

Measurement = 0;
Distance = 0;
Name = image_name;
for (i=0; i<nResults(); i++){
        Measurement = i+1;
        Distance = (getResult("Distance", i));
       
print(f,(Measurement)+"\t"+(Name)+"\t"+(Distance));

}

Use setResult(column,row,string) to add strings to the results table and getResultString(column,row) to retrieve them. The following example creates a results table, adds a string to each row in the table, and then retrieves and prints the strings.

-wayne

  run("T1 Head (2.4M, 16-bits)");
  for (i=1; i<=nSlices; i++) {
     setSlice(i);
     run("Measure");
  }
  for (i=0; i<nResults; i++)
     setResult("Name", i, "name"+IJ.pad(i+1,3));
  updateResults;
  for (i=0; i<nResults; i++)
     print(i, getResultString("Name", i));

H Wayne,

Thanks for that and for printing a string stored in a variable to a table other than results, i found that the variable needs a plus sign either side and a pair of double quotation marks either side, at least thats what worked for me..

Where "Name" is a string:

print(f,(Measurement)+"\t"+" "+Name+" "+"\t"+(Distance));

Thanks,

Matt
