Problem with drag and drop function for macros and plugins

Stephane Le Brun
Hi all,

 

I am new to ImageJ and have a problem with the “Drag and drop” function
(although it might be very stupid)

*         It works all right for pictures – see below for a duck

*         However it does not work for .java , .jar or .ijm files: it then
opens a text window considering the file is a .java.URL, .jar.URL or
.ijm.URL (which as far as I understand means it has not recognized the
format of the file) – see below for ROI_Color_Coder.ijm which has been
opened as ROI_Color_Coder.ijm.URL

Would you know how could I fix this ?

 

My system is Windows 7 Professional, 64 bits

ImageJ is version is ij150 with Java 1.8.0_77

 

Thanks a lot for your help

Stéphane

Hi Stephane,

I am guessing you have "Hide file extensions for known types" turned on in
your system. Windows ships with this "feature" turned on by default. So
your files are not actually .java, .jar or .ijm files, but rather .url
pointers to those files online, as you might guess from the text shown by
ImageJ.

See this guide to disable this confusing feature:

Curtis

Hi Curtis,

thanks a lot for your answer.
I turned off the "Hide file extensions for known types" feature (and it was
on, as you said).
Unfortunately, I still encounter the same problem (see below)

Would you have any other idea of where it could come from?

Thanks a lot
Stéphane

Hi Stéphane,

> Unfortunately, I still encounter the same problem

Do your files end in the extension .url? If so, then as I said, they are
not actually .java / .jar / .ijm files, but only URL references to those
files. You need to actually download the files from the Internet before
ImageJ can open them. Or you can use File > Import > URL..., although
please note that ImageJ cannot handle opening https:// URLs from
imagej.nih.gov. You will probably find it easiest to download files using
your web browser, and then drag and drop them onto ImageJ.

Unfortunately, your image attachments did not come through.

Curtis
