Hi,

I'm using ImageJ's 3D project stack function to do a 360 degree  
rotation of a 512x512 confocal microscopy stack with 61 vertical  
slices. I choose 360 degree rotation about the y-axis with 5 degree  
increments. When the rotation stack is complete, it has new  
dimensions of 512x524 pixels and not 512x512 pixels. If I do a  
rotation about the x-axis instead, the pixel dimensions come out as  
524x512. Is this a bug? Why are these extra rows or columns of empty  
pixels being created by this function?
