saving image with ROIs

Karen Kempler
How do you save an image with the ROIs still in place?  I have confocal
images that I draw 3 ROIs on them and then I would like to save the
image with those ROIs still on them, but I haven't been able to do that yet.
Thank you
Karen

Hi Karen,

make sure you use the latest version and save as TIFF or ZIP.

I do have the latest version and I was saving as a tiff, but when I
reopen the ROIs are not there.??  What am I doing wrong?

Re: saving image with ROIs

Hi Karen,

(to the list: after some more discussion...)

In the ROI manager, if you select 'Show All', actually the image has  
no ROI; 'show' does not mean 'select'. So, after 'Show All', no ROI  
will be saved with the image.
You can easily see this by 'Show All' and doing some operation that  
only affects the ROI such as 'Invert'. It will work on the whole  
image, because there is no ROI.

Instead of 'Show All', you can use 'Combine', then you can save the  
image with all the ROIs. There is also a 'Split' command in the  
'More>>' menu of the ROI manager, it might be useful after opening  
the saved image with the combined ROIs.
