Northern Eclipse Help Reference

 XY Minimum Projection


This function creates one minimum projected image from all of the images in the movie. It is equivalent to applying Boolean Min to all of the layers in the stack at once. This feature is ideal for creating one in-focus dark image (like a brightfield, phase contrast, DIC, or color image).

Hint: Deconvolve the image set prior to using XY Maximum Projection (see Deconvolve Plugin).
   

Notes: A movie window is basically the same as an image window, except that it contains multiple images (or frames).  With Eclipse, movies are nearly always saved as multi-layer TIFF images.  Video files such as AVI and MPG are not acceptable since they normally use lossy compression techniques that lose image information in favor of reducing file size. To create an AVI from a movie see AVI plugin.
