public class ParticleAnalyzer
extends java.lang.Object
implements PlugInFilter, Measurements

Implements ImageJ's Analyze Particles command.

        for each line do
                for each pixel in this line do
                        if the pixel value is "inside" the threshold range then
                                trace the edge to mark the object
                                do the measurement
                                fill the object with a color outside the threshold range
                        else
                                continue the scan

public ParticleAnalyzer(int options,
                        int measurements,

                        double minCirc,
                        double maxCirc)
```
    Constructs a ParticleAnalyzer.
    
    Parameters:
    
    options - a flag word created by Oring SHOW_RESULTS, EXCLUDE_EDGE_PARTICLES, etc.
    
    measurements - a flag word created by ORing constants defined in the Measurements interface
    
    rt - a ResultsTable where the measurements will be stored
    
    minSize - the smallest particle size in pixels
    
    maxSize - the largest particle size in pixels
    
    minCirc - minimum circularity
    
    maxCirc - maximum circularity
  - ParticleAnalyzer
```
public ParticleAnalyzer(int options,
                        int measurements,
                        ResultsTable rt,
                        double minSize,
                        double maxSize)
```
    Constructs a ParticleAnalyzer using the default min and max circularity values (0 and 1).
  - ParticleAnalyzer
```
public ParticleAnalyzer()
```
    Default constructor
- Method Detail
  - setup
```
public int setup(java.lang.String arg,
                 ImagePlus imp)
```
    Description copied from interface: PlugInFilter
    
    This method is called once when the filter is loaded. 'arg', which may be blank, is the argument specified for this plugin in IJ_Props.txt or in the plugins.config file of a jar archive containing the plugin. 'imp' is the currently active image. This method should return a flag word that specifies the filters capabilities.
    For Plugin-filters specifying the PlugInFilter.FINAL_PROCESSING flag, the setup method will be called again, this time with arg = "final" after all other processing is done.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setup in interface PlugInFilter
  - run
```
public void run(ImageProcessor ip)
```
    Description copied from interface: PlugInFilter
    
    Filters use this method to process the image. If the PlugInFilter.DOES_STACKS flag was set, it is called for each slice in a stack. With PlugInFilter.CONVERT_TO_FLOAT, the filter is called with the image data converted to a FloatProcessor (3 times per image for RGB images). ImageJ will lock the image before calling this method and unlock it when the filter is finished. For PlugInFilters specifying the PlugInFilter.NO_IMAGE_REQUIRED flag and not the PlugInFilter.DONE flag, run(ip) is called once with the argument null.
    
    Specified by:
    
    run in interface PlugInFilter
  - showDialog
```
public boolean showDialog()
```
    Displays a modal options dialog.
  - analyze
```
public boolean analyze(ImagePlus imp)
```
    Performs particle analysis on the specified image. Returns false if there is an error.
  - analyze
```
public boolean analyze(ImagePlus imp,
                       ImageProcessor ip)
```
    Performs particle analysis on the specified ImagePlus and ImageProcessor. Returns false if there is an error.
  - saveResults
```
protected void saveResults(ImageStatistics stats,
                           Roi roi)
```
    Saves statistics for one particle in a results table. This is a method subclasses can override.
  - drawParticle
```
protected void drawParticle(ImageProcessor drawIP,
                            Roi roi,
                            ImageStatistics stats,
                            ImageProcessor mask)
```
    Draws a selected particle in a separate image. This is another method subclasses may want to override.
  - getOutputImage
```
public ImagePlus getOutputImage()
```
    Returns the "Outlines", "Masks", "Elipses" or "Count Masks" image, or null if "Nothing" is selected in the "Show:" menu.
  - setHideOutputImage
```
public void setHideOutputImage(boolean hideOutputImage)
```
    Set 'hideOutputImage' true to not display the "Show:" image.
  - setFontSize
```
public static void setFontSize(int size)
```
    Sets the size of the font used to label outlines in the next particle analyzer instance.
  - setFontColor
```
public static void setFontColor(java.lang.String color)
```
    Sets the color ("blue", "black", etc.) of the font used to label outlines in the next particle analyzer instance.
  - setLineWidth
```
public static void setLineWidth(int width)
```
    Sets the outline line width for the next ParticleAnalyzer instance.
  - setRoiManager
```
public static void setRoiManager(RoiManager manager)
```
    Sets the RoiManager to be used by the next ParticleAnalyzer instance. There is a JavaScript example at http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/macros/js/HiddenRoiManager.js
  - setResultsTable
```
public static void setResultsTable(ResultsTable rt)
```
    Sets the ResultsTable to be used by the next ParticleAnalyzer instance.
  - setSummaryTable
```
public static void setSummaryTable(ResultsTable rt)
```
    Sets the ResultsTable to be used by the next ParticleAnalyzer instance for the summary.
  - savePreferences
```
public static void savePreferences(java.util.Properties prefs)
```
    Called once when ImageJ quits.
