Re: image - convert does not do anything

Hi,
In Fiji, that "convert" command is not part of IJ, but part of Fiji's imagej-
ops0.45.5,jar

If you type "convert" in the box under the menu, you can look at the source
code which takes you to

https://github.com/imagej/imagej-ops/blob/imagej-ops-0.45.5/src/main/java/net/
imagej/ops/commands/convert/ConvertImgPlus.java

You probably have to contact the authors of that file.

There is another "Convert..." under the Process>Batch menu. Perhaps your user
is intending to use that one?

Cheers

Gabriel
