how ot find the center of an ROI

[Aryeh Weiss]

The Roi class has a method called getCentroid() that returns the
centroid of an Roi.]

Is there a similarly simple way to find the center of mass of an Roi or
Selection.
so far, it looks like I need to do the following:

1. define an Analyzer(imp) object
2. Use Analyzer.measure() to put the mesurements into a ResultsTable
3. Read the appropriate columns of the ResultsTable.

Is this the way to do it, or is there a way to directly get it from the
Roi, like the centroid?

With the macro language and Image 1.52p or later, use

 xm = getValue("XM");
 ym = getValue("YM");
 print(xm,ym);

To get uncalibrated values use

 xm = getValue("XM raw");
 ym = getValue("YM raw");
 print(xm,ym);

With a scripting language and the 1.52q30 daily build, use

 img = IJ.getImage();
 xm = IJ.getValue(img,"XM");
 ym = IJ.getValue(img,"YM");
 IJ.log(xm+" "+ym);

 xm = IJ.getValue(img,"XM raw");
 ym = IJ.getValue(img,"YM raw");
 IJ.log(xm+" "+ym);

Thank you -- it does exactly what I need.
