Do other people have experience or opinions about this?

So far I didn't actually think of selecting the desired image, but relied  
on the principle that if in "manual mode" (i.e. by going through the  
menus) the correct image is automatically selected after an operation, it  
will also be in a macro with setBatchMode(true). Maybe that's a wrong  
assumption...?
