Problem Macro Recording

[Adrián Villalba]

Dear all,

I am very new to imageJ,
I tried to record a Macro like that:

run("Split Channels");
close();
selectWindow("IC_5.jpg (red)");
close();
selectWindow("IC_5.jpg (green)");
setAutoThreshold("Moments dark");
//run("Threshold...");
setAutoThreshold("Moments dark");
//setThreshold(82, 255);
setOption("BlackBackground", false);
run("Convert to Mask");
run("Close");
run("Erode");
run("Analyze Particles...", "size=200-Infinity show=[Overlay Masks] display
exclude clear summarize in_situ");


But when i try to re-use again, it does not work with other pictures
because of IC_5.jpg error name. I know this is a very basic question. Could
anyone help me? Thank you in advance!

Dear Adrián,
Your code applies only to the specific picture named "IC_5.jpg" (i.e. the one open while you were using the recorder).
Thus in order to generalize your code, just add a:
pictureName = getTitle();
to get the opened picture name and then later use:
selectWindow(pictureName + " (green)");
selectWindow(pictureName + " (red)");
My best regards,
Philippe

Hi Adrián,

you can use something like the following:

   title = getTitle();
   run("Split Channels");
   selectWindow(title+" (blue)");
   close();
   selectWindow(title+" (red)");
   close();
   selectWindow(title+" (green)");
   // process the green channel

Note that '+' serves as string concatenation operator in the macro
language (as it does in Java and Javascript).
