Label editor

The Label editor is used to define and edit labels. You will have the ability to analyze data via the Label analysis or Chemotaxis analysis.

Defining a label (space or time dimension)

1. Define the area of interest.
• To define a circular/rectangular area, click the Circle/Rectangle button under Draw New Label then drag the mouse in the Image Display window to delineate the area.
• To select the entire frame, click the Full image button then click the image. You should see an outline around the image.
2. Under Properties, enter a name. The name is displayed under Select Label for Editing/Name.
3. Set a time length for the label: Enter values for Start Frame and End Frame.

   To analyze the entire image sequence, make sure you use the last frame number as the value for End Frame.

Defining a recurring label (time dimension)

A recurring label will generate multiple labels of the same length (in frames) at regular intervals.

1. Select the entire frame: Click the Full image button then click the image. You should see an outline around the image.
2. Under Properties, enter a name. The name is displayed under Select Label for Editing/Name.
3. Enter values for Start frame and End frame that define the first label.
4. Check Recurrence.
5. Enter an Interval length (label length + number of frames before next label).

 

Example: The label length is 50 frames, you want to start the analyses at frame 1 and add an interval of 10 frames between labels.
