creating a fixed line segment and movable image

[Barton, Robert]

Hi,

I'm a fairly new ImageJ user (~4months) and have been trying to figure out
if it is possible to draw a line segment on an image and then elect to keep
the segment fixed in it's position while moving the image underneath it.

I'd like to be able to move the image and have a real-time plot profile
eventually.

Thanks for any help.

Robert,

        Just curious, but why does the line have to stay fixed, and the
image move, and not vice versa?

Eventually, I'd like to be able to compare two images to each other using an x- and a y- profile.  I figure it will be easiest to incorporate two fixed line segements along with fixing one image.  That would allow me to have a constant x- and y- profile of the fixed image and I could move the other image and observe it's real-time profile to align it with the fixed image.
 
I guess at this point I'm just trying to take one small step towards a much larger solution.

In previous posts about the memory limit of the JVM, people noted that they
could not start ImageJ with limits over 1700MB. On my machine, it is about 1408
(1472 already does not work). Is there any way around this (eg, a more recent
JVM, or an option that can be set)?
Since I now have 3GB or RAM, it would be nice if ImageJ could use it.
Also, is the situation any better under Linux?

Thanks in advance for any information on this subject.

I think you cannot do that without writing a plugin.  If you are
proficient in Java, you might want to look at
http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/plugins/graphic-overlay.html for an example how
to draw a line without destroying the underlying image.

Hello Aryeh,

we had the same problem under Win2000. In spite of the 4 GB RAM only 1400
MB could be used in ImageJ. One reason for this situation is the advers
location of the OS libraries of the 32-bit Windows OS. Using Linux (in
particular Fedora Core 5) now 2700 MB can be used in one ImageJ-Task.

Hope that will help you a little.

Thank you for the reply. With a very helpful hint from Wayne, I am now able
to allocate at least 2700MB (I actually allocate 2300MB). This is done by using
the JRockit 6 JVM, and adding a /3GB flag in the windows Boot.ini file. This is
a link that told me how to do it

So far ImageJ works with the JRockit JVM but I have not done anything really
extensive with it.

Thanks Aryeh, I have added that link to the ImageJ wiki's "How do I
increase the memory in ImageJ" FAQ entry.

Dear all,

the "AggressiveHeap" command (as mentioned in the Wiki) works fine for
me. I used around 7 GB in ImageJ on a 8 GB machine (Windows and Java
64bit) for making movies out of tif-files.

cheers,
Michael
