Sorry to bother you again,

I have downloaded the latest version of ImageJ instead of the Fiji version and copied paste like you have done for me Michael.

I included the new StartupMacros.txt file.
The position of the icon is where I wanted it, but I don't see the icon I constructed (the very long code), the icon should look like this (see attachment).
All I get is a blank icon.
The name I change is correct however  (Volume fraction)
When I click on the icon I get an error (it says a { is expected at line 31),when I check the code however I think the correct of open close {} is there,...
Can you please check what is wrong with the icon and why the macro is not running ?
Thanks in advance,
Martin

Hi Martin,

sorry, I have plain ImageJ, not Fiji; I can't say whether Fiji uses other files for startup. With plain ImageJ, it works when I put it into my StartupMacros.txt. You might do some other changes in your StartupMacros.txt and see whether Fiji does these changes, otherwise it reads a different file.
You might have a look, e.g., whether "StartupMacros.ijm" or "StartupMacros.fiji.ijm" exist (and are in use), instead of "StartupMacros.txt".

Also make sure that you have no additional line breaks introduced by the mailer, e.g. the first line should include the long string with the code for the icon (a Strings constant must be given in one line).


Michael
