Thank you very much for your reply.I do stimulated acceptor emission(Tag protein with GFP-YFP and excite using laser to find the FRET ) .Yes you are right .Its not possible  to use FRET plugins's methods in macros .I tried and failed.

Could you please let me know the name of the plugins and the (working version to process stacks) you mentioned.

I'm working with FRET too. I'm measuring stimulated acceptor emission within
time stacks. There are two plugins for measurement of stimulated emission,
but they are not intended to process stacks. Therefore I'm writing my own
plugin that allows to process stacks (working version is available if you
need).

I'm not familiar with macro language but I believe that it is almost
impossible to use FRET plugins's methods in macros. Thus it is better to use
plugin as it is. If you need to modify plugin you need to modify its source
code.

What kind of FRET experiments do you have, photobleaching or stimulated
emission?
