Hi,
ImageJ locks an image (i.e., an ImagePlus) before it runs a
PlugInFilter. This prevents you from, e.g., selecting a new
command modifying an image before the previous operation has
finished.
If you start a PlugInFilter from a PlugInFilter by IJ.run,
ImageJ will try to lock the image already locked.
You can avoid this conflict by imp.unlock(), where imp is the
ImagePlus. You get a reference to the ImagePlus in the setup
method.
