Hi all,

I'm struggling to setup some shortcuts for macros within imageJ.  I'm aiming for three things:
1. macro installs automatically at start up
2. macro is available through the >> toolbars menu
3. macro can be assigned an icon as a shortcut in the toolbar

1.  I have added the following line to startup macros.txt file:
macro "AutoRun" {
        run("Run…", "run=[//Applications//Micro-Manager1.4//macros//RGB Composite Action Tool.txt]");
}

This doesn't work for some reason.  Initially i didn't have any spaces in the file name but used the underscore "_" it still didn't work with this though.

2.  I have added the macro to the Plugins>Tools folder

This hasn't worked.

3.  How do i give the macro an icon and add it to the toolbar?

I should also say that this is Imagej bundled with Micro-Manager so in fact the Tools folder within the Plugins folder didn't exist so i created the folder and added my macro to it but it doesn't appear.

Can anyone help we figure out where i'm going wrong with this?

Thanks a lot,

Matt
