Hi all,

I am analysing 4-channel microscopic recordings, in which every channel is saved as a separate image.
I would like to incorporate the Merge Channels function into the macro, and I have tried doing this by macro recording. What I get is this:

run("Merge Channels...", "c1=recording1-0003 c2=recording1-0002 c3=recording1-0001 c4=recording1-0004 create keep")

The 'recording1' part in this rule represent the current image name, the numbers represent the channels.
Of course, when running a macro, I would like it to be applicable to any file, not only the one I was using now... but I do want it to keep using the '-0001' etc extensions for directing every channel to the correct colour in the merged image.

Does anyone know how to achieve this?

Thank you very much in advance,
Rachel Nilwik
