Rename labels in "Cell counter" plugin at starup

[Alexander V. Kalachev-2]

Dear list members!

For my current project I need to manually count a number of cellular inclusions on electron
microscopic images. I'm using "Cell counter" plugin for this. Is there a way to set the number of
labels and their names when I start the plugin from a macros?

With kind regards,
Alexander

Are you sure you need to do it manually? ImageJ has many tools for
automated counting. It is much better for quantitative consistency. Please
see http://imagej.net/Segmentation for a starting point.

No, you would have to change the source code of the plugin [1].

Note that the Cell Counter plugin is old and unmaintained. Even if you are
doing manual counting, consider multi-point selections [2] with the ROI
Manager [3] instead.

them. Thank you!
