Hi,

In general, I prefer using image IDs over image titles. This avoids
potential problems when there are multiple windows with the same title.
While ImageJ takes steps to avoid this happening in common cases, it is
still possible. But each image is always given a unique ID value.
First, get the ID of the active image using "id = getImageID()". Then when
you need to reactivate that image window, call "selectImage(id)".
Regards,
Curtis
