Repeated line (length) measurements

James Wesley-Smith
Good day

Please excuse me if this is today's dumbest question, but is there a way
of manually acquiring repeated length measurements in an image without
having to click Ctrl+M every time?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,

James

Hi James,

you don't need to press CTRL unless you select that CTRL is required (in
Edit>Options>Misc).

Otherwise, what would be easier than just pressing one button?

Of course, you could write a macro that does a measurement as soon as
you release the mouse button. Then, if you have started drawing a line
in the wrong position, there is no way out, its length will be recorded
(unless you terminate the macro with ESC).

Hi James,
The ObjectJ plugin should be able to do what you need.
See https://sils.fnwi.uva.nl/bcb/objectj/2-Tutorial.html
cheers,
John
