Sync Windows 64bit

[Frank Sprenger]

I cannot get the SyncWindow to work with three stack and synchronizing
z-slices to work in 64bit mode ImageJ on Mac or PC. Seems to work in 32 bit
mode.
Is there a workaround?

Thanks

Is it possible that you simply run with a different ImageJ on the 64-bit
computer? There was a recent change in ImageJ, which prevents the Sync Win
plugin from synchronizing. This has been fixed in Fiji (and consequently
in ImageJA's 'fiji' branch).

Ciao,

Dear Johannes,

you are right, 32bit version is 1.4.3n, SyncWindows works
64bit version is 14.3q. SyncWindows does not work

upgrade to 1.4.3.q on 32bit version: SyncWindows does not work anymore.
So it is not a problem with 64bit, but with the ImageJ version.
I hope a fix will be out soon.


Best

Frank

Of course you hope that. It is very nice of Wayne to work for free, isn't
it? But IMHO that does not preclude you from being a little less pushy,
no? Especially since you chased people down the wrong track first.

FWIW Wayne integrated my fix for this into the daily build.

Ciao,

Sorry, I did not want to be pushy at all!

I expected that a fix would not be too difficult  since Fiji had  a fix already.
I was in the middle of a course teaching students how to use ImageJ and would had to switch to Fiji to demonstrate what great tool SyncWindows is.

Now, with your and Waynes help, I could present the fix in the ImageJ daily built and  could demonstrate  a) the ImageJ users list, b) how to update a daily built c) till the participants what I great community the ImageJ provides d) tell the participants that another incarnation of ImageJ, Fiji, is there and it they should look at this too.

Thanks again, Johannes and Wayne

Sorry about that too, I did not realize, that ImageJ and ImageJ64 sitting in the same folder on my Mac, sharing the same plugins (like SyncWindows) would be running different ImageJ versions. I thought this would really bea likely problem that the 64bit version would have problems with some plugins and would behave different from the 32bit version.
