Hi all,

I am running the 3D ObjectCounter semiautomatically by calling it from a macro. The macro cycles through the open images and the Counter analyzes the objects. So far, so good.
If I decide to show no summary and if I do not click on "New results" in the 3D Object Counter, the plugin adds new results to the results tab. The problem is, that I cannot distinguish any longer which results is from which object. Is it possible to add a line in between which just tells you e.g. the name of the open image, or just "next window".

I have already tried an - for me - "easier" solution; if you select "summary", but not "New results" in the 3D Object Counter plugin, the Summary is displayed in the Log-file, and new objects are always added, however, the Results window (which also pops up) is always updated and the new -individual- results replace the old ones (which means that the individual results from the previous image are lost). I tried to add a command line to my macro to Duplicate the results and give this window a new name+index; however this did not work out.

Here is my macro (just the interesting part of it): (FL-1.tif is the name of all open images!)

do {
 selectWindow("FL-1.tif");
 run("Object Counter3D", "threshold=100 slice=3 min=10 max=358974 new_results dot=3 font=12 summary");
 selectWindow("FL-1.tif");
 close();
 } while (nImages>=1);

Does anybode has an idea on that? Is any of my ideas plausible and possible to implement in my macro???

Thanks in advance
Johannes
