Thank you so much! Works really fine now. It is certainly a good idea to
rename the images. I have thought of that before, but it is not possible to
do that in the macro before. Doing it in the "do"-loop is just perfect! :-)

Hi Johannes,

I indeed have a good idea about how to make this work: first, use the
new version of 3D-OC, available from the wiki:
http://imagejdocu.tudor.lu/doku.php?id=plugin:analysis:3d_object_counter:start
Now, looking at the macro, am I right thinking that all your images
carry the same name ?!!! Surely, renaming images either while running
the macro or prior to analysis, may help. The resutsTable is
identified by its name which itself is build from the image title.
Analysing twice the same image or two images with the same name will
result in replacing the content of the resultsTable with the new
analysis results. Here is a modified version of the macro:

index=0;
do {
selectWindow("FL-1.tif");
rename("Image"+index);
run("Object Counter3D", "threshold=100 slice=3 min=10 max=358974
new_results dot=3 font=12 summary");
//selectWindow("FL-1.tif");
selectWindow("Image"+index);
close();
index++;
} while (nImages>=1);
