String Array of Image Names

davek604

Hello

I'm writing an automation that requires subtracting several mask images generated from 1 master image. Rather than give each mask a different name which is messy and hard to keep track of I would like to create an array of McImages.

For example

Dim mask(5) As McImage

Dim x As Integer

For x = 1 to 5

	With Measure.Measurements.CreateCommands.Mask(MakeMasks)
            .Run(ThisApplication.ActiveImage)
        End With

	Masks(x) = "Mask" & number.ToString(x)

        DapiMaskName1 = ThisApplication.ActiveImage 'Assigns the mask image name to variable so that it can be selected

Next x 

Not the exact code but close. McImage doesn't seem to accept arrays of images like this, is there another way or would I have to use separate filenames for each one.

Regards

Hi David,

You should assign image directly to the array element:

Masks(x) = ThisApplication.ActiveImage

Also, CreateCommands.Mask has output parameter, which you can use directly:

---

        With Measure.Measurements.CreateCommands.Mask(CreateMasks)
            .Run(doc1, image1)
        End With
        Masks(x)=image1
