Dear all,
Handing of FFTs (and complex numbers) is a definite weakness of ImageJ.
Actually ImageJ implements only the Discrete Hartley transform in order to
avoid as much as possible use of complex numbers.
May be this was a reasonable design choice 15 years ago when ImageJ was
hardly more than an applet displaying an image but now I think it will make
much sense to reconsider this.
To put it simply without canonical state of the art FFT/IFFT routine
ImageJ is not suitable for serious work in linear filtering/signal
processing.
It will be nice to expose FFTs using for example JTransforms library

best regards,
