Label editor
The Label editor is used to define and edit labels. You can analyze data via Label analysis or Chemotaxis analysis.
Defining a label (space or time dimension)
- Define the region of interest.
- To define a circular or rectangular area, click the Circle or Rectangle button under Draw New Label then drag the mouse in the Image Display window to delineate the area.
- Determine whether to track inside or outside the region using the Region Mode drop-down.
- To select the entire frame, click the Full image button then click the image. You should see an outline around the image.
- Under Properties, enter a name. The name is displayed under Select Label for Editing/Name.
- Set a time length for the label: Enter values for Start Frame and End Frame.
To analyze the entire image sequence, 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.
- Select the entire frame: Click the Full image button then click the image. You should see an outline around the image.
- Under Properties, enter a name. The name is displayed under Select Label for Editing/Name.
- Enter values for Start frame and End frame that define the first label.
- Check Recurrence.
- 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.
