You can easily make the crosses larger in the Grid plugin:
1. Type “L” (Plugins>Utilities>Command Finder)
2. Enter “grid” in the Search box
2. Select the line with “Grid” in the “Command” column
3. Click “Source” (opens Grid_.java in the editor)
4. Type ctrl-f (Edit>Find)
5. Enter “arm” in the search box
6. Change “float arm=5” to “float arm=20”
7. Type ctrl-r (File>Compile and Run)
The crosses will now be four times larger. On Macs, use the command key instead of the control key when using keyboard shortcuts in the editor.
You can change the size of points created by the multi-point tool, and, in the next version of ImageJ, the multi-point tool will support multiple counters.
