Hi everyone,

I'm making some simple linear measurements on some pictures and I would
like to save a version of the picture with the actual lines measured on
them, so I can come back in the future and see what was actually measured.

I'm doing this by checking the box "add to overlay" under: Analyze -> Set
Measurements
and also checking the boxes "show labels", " use names as labels" and "
draw background".
By having all these checked, every time I draw a line and and click
"measure", the line is numbered and showed permanently over the picture and
the hole thing (picture and lines) can be saved as a JPEG file.

The problem is, every time I open the next file to be analyzed I have to
check all those boxes again. Is there a way to save these preferences so
they'll remain after I reopen ImageJ or another file?

Thank you!!
Ralph.​​
