run("Set Mearsurements...... How to pass a variable

[Guy Mayor-2]

Hello,

I am writing a bach macro that process all images in a folder or a tree of
folders. I would like to iteratively use a

run("Set Measurements...", "area mean standard modal min perimeter fit
circularity feret's integrated redirect=None decimal=0");

followed by several

run("Distribution...", "parameter=Area or=50 and=2");
run("Distribution...", "parameter=Feret or=50 and=2");
....

To generate several distribution pictures for each processed picture

I have not been able to find a correct syntaxe to assigne
"redirect=imagename" to a variable (the changing image name). I can only
pass "None" or the name of an open image in the popup menu

Is it any way to pass a variable in this setup?

If not, how could I achieve this goal at macro level?


Thanks for any help or suggestion

Hi,

You should be able to split the string and insert you image name.  
Something like the following...

run("Set Measurements...", "area mean standard modal min perimeter fit
circularity feret's integrated redirect=" + myImageName +" decimal=0");

Cheers,
Ben

Dear all I'm trying to write a macro that open all the movies (*.dv) inside a
file and then substract the background of two channels. This is the code
that I have till now but it seems that the command save does not work and
also does not make any substraction, just open the movies and split the
channels:

dir1 = getDirectory("C:\Users\p250572\Desktop\Santi\training");
list = getFileList(dir1);
dir2 = dir1+"analysed"+File.separator;
File.makeDirectory(dir2);
for (i=0; i<list.length; i++)
       {

       if (File.isDirectory(dir1+list[i])){}
       else{

               path = dir1+list[i];
               if (endsWith(path, ".db")){}
               else{

                       open(path);
                       if (bitDepth!=24){}  
                       else {
                               setBatchMode(true);
                               title = File.nameWithoutExtension ;
                               run("Split Channels");
                               close();
                                                                selectWindow(title);
                                                                run("Subtract Background...", "rolling=50");
                               saveAs("Tiff", dir2+title+"d0.tif");
                               saveAs("Tiff", dir2+title+"d1.tif");
                               close();
                               saveAs("Tiff", dir2+title+"d2.tif");
                               close();
                               setBatchMode(false);

                               }
                       }
               }
       }

Any piece of advice will be appreciate!

Best wishes;
