debug a macro

[Ed Siefker]

The imagej documentation refers to a debug menu.
I cannot find it.  It is neither in the main window,
nor is it in the macro editor window.

Pressing ctrl-d, as specified in the documentation,
doesn't work.  If focus is on an image, it executes
"run("Draw", "slice");".  If focus is in the macro editor,
it deletes the current line.

I am referring to the documentation found here:
http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/macros.html#debugger
I am using FIJI based on ImageJ 1.51a.

Hi Ed,

On the main window Click > Plugins > Macro > Edit.
ImageJ will open a dialog asking which macro to edit.
Select your macro and voila.
The Debug option has nice features I use all the time.

The macro debugger is not available in the Fiji Script Editor. One way to use the debugger in Fiji is to copy the macro to the clipboard and paste it into Fiji using the Edit>Paste command, which opens it in the ImageJ macro editor.
