Hi,

Are you talking about the Analyze->Measure tool? Indeed, the mass center and
centroid reported by that tool seem to take only the current stack slice into
account (ImageJ v. 1.34s).
 
This missing z-coordinate is easy to "fix", but question is if supposed to
work like that, and if we fix it, will code/macros depending on it working
the way it does now break?

Wayne, what do you think?
