Hi Gary,
Sounds like a job for a macro.
Below is the code of a macro I created real easy, by going
to
\Plugins\Macros\Record...
See what happens if you do this and then leave the
recorder window open while you open one picture and do the
actions you want repeated for every picture.
//start of macro
open("C:\\Maindir\\subdir\\filename.tif");
run("Set Scale...", "distance=96 known=13.8 pixel=1 unit=
µm");
run("Add Scale Bar ", "width=10 height=4 font=16
color=White location=[Upper Right] bold");
//end of macro
You get a µ with alt+230 in unicode, in case you wanted
know.
You can adjust the macro to your purposes (specifying the
right path for "C:\\Maindir\\subdir\\filename.tif",
setting distance in pixels to a know number of some unit,
and change the width, hight, font, color and location of
the scale bar) and copy the code for every image you need
to open.
The macro can be run by going to
\Plugins\Macros\Run...
Hope this was useful to you.
Greetings,
Edwin
