Variable in duplicate command

[PEARSON Matthew]

Hi all,

I want to duplicate a certain number of frames within a stack using  
the Image>duplicate command in a macro but the range of frames i want  
duplicated are stored as variables, i don't want to refer to specific  
numbers.  How can i insert a range between one variable and another  
instead of 1-41, i have done this before but can't remember.  
Something like range="var1"-"+var2); or do you use "&" before each  
variable?
Here's the original without variables:
run("Duplicate...", "title=[1 25.ome-1.tiff] duplicate range=1-41");

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

you need to put a '+' whenever you connect strings with variables. In your
example this would be like this:

run("Duplicate...", "title=[1 25.ome-1.tiff] duplicate range=" + var1 + "-"
+ var2);

cheers,
Jan
