<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Dear Balaji,<br><br></div>I think the ActionListener in my plugin is slowing the BF Importer. Take a look at a sample code below. The first call to BF importer from inside BF_plugin() opens image quickly but when I press the "open image" button, it takes 5-10 sec to open the same image. Any thoughts on why ActionListener is slowing things down and how to remedy this?<br><br></div><div>Thanks,<br><br></div><div>Ved<br><br></div><div><br></div>// ******************* plugin starts here ****************************<br><div>import ij.plugin.frame.*;<br>import java.awt.event.*;<br>import ij.*;<br>import ij.gui.*;<br>import javax.swing.*;<br><br>public class BF_plugin extends PlugInFrame implements ActionListener {<br> private JPanel panel;<br> public BF_plugin() {<br> super("BF_plugin");<br> panel = new JPanel();<br> JButton b = new JButton("open image");<br> b.addActionListener(this);<br> panel.add(b);<br> add(panel);<br> pack();<br> GUI.center(this);<br> setVisible(true);<br> IJ.run("Bio-Formats Importer",

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you for reporting your issue.</div>
<div>It would be great if you could expand the “options” that were used to open the image within the plugin. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Could you please check the following,</div>
<ol>
<li>open ImageJ. Go to Plugins—>Macro—> Record</li><li>In the Macro Recorder window , please use the drop down menu for “Record” and select “Java” as the option.</li><li>Repeat the Manual workflow described in your post (which opens the file within a fraction of a second).This will record the api method call , in the Recorder window.</li><li>And check if the “options” in your plugin, matches the “options” in the Macro Recorder, for the IJ.Run method.</li></ol>
<div>If they match, there should be no difference in terms of performance in the import call.</div>
<div>Please let us know, if you find otherwise.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Best,</div>

<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
</div>
When I run <i>Bio-Formats Importer</i> from ImageJ, it opens an image file of size ~ 20MB within a fraction of a second. When I open the same image file by calling
<i>Bio-Formats Importer</i> from inside a plugin using IJ.run("Bio-Formats Importer", "options"), it takes a long time to open the file (~ 10 sec). It starts with a white background and then after about ~5-10 seconds, the image is displayed. Can anybody tell
me what am I doing wrong when calling BF Importer from inside a plugin?<br>
<br>
<u>System info:</u> I have ImageJ 1.49v running on WIndows 7, 64-bit computer and I have installed bioformats_package.jar (ver 5.1.2) in the plugins folder of ImageJ.
<br>
<br>
</div>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
