Hi,
The output of the measurements were in pixels as the coordinates reported by the ROI.getCoordinates (x,y) are in pixels. Below is a slightly modified version of the macro that reports the distance in pixels plus the calibrated distance and units (depending on values set in 'Analysis -> Set Scale').
Hope this helps,
Volko
roiManager("select",0);
Roi.getCoordinates(x0,y0);
for(i=1;i<roiManager("count");i++) {
roiManager("select",i);
Roi.getCoordinates(x,y);
d=sqrt(pow(x[0]-x0[0],2)+pow(y[0]-y0[0],2));
getPixelSize(unit,pixelWidth,pixelHeight);
scaled=d*pixelWidth;
print(i,d,scaled,unit);
}

Hi Volko,
I ran your macro, and everything looked great at first, but I am getting strange units as a measurement. At first I thought it was giving an output in pixels, so I tried converting the number into inches based on the dpi, but the number I obtained was much larger than it should be. Based on the macro that you wrote, what would be the units of the output given?
