Hi Oliver,

this should be possible without reccurring to a plugin with a combination
of thresholding and binary operations.

You could also do it with a macro pretty easily (probably the most
universal approach), but in contrast
to a plugin, a macro can only directly operate on ONE image at a time,
which would mean to read
ImgB into an array first - which is also not a big deal!

Cheers

Joachim
