Issues while Combining Segments in Morphological Segmentation

[dtstone]

I have been using Morphological Segmentation to segment 3D TIFF image stacks, and I have encountered several issues. For context, I am running this on FIJI (ImageJ 1.51w, Java 1.8_66[64bit]).

1. LABELS WILL NOT MERGE: sometimes I use the marker tool to select over 10 labels and hit "merge", but nothing will happen. If I clear the selected markers and try merging fewer labels, then it seems to work. This usually happens after I have already merged dozens of labels previously.

2. PLUGIN GETS STUCK ON ONE IMAGE: sometimes the plugin gets "stuck" on the image I am currently looking at, and that image will be somewhat transparently overlaid on top of any other images when I am scrolling through the image set loaded into the plugin. Some or most of the interface buttons are greyed out. If I hit "run" and then "stop", then the issue seemed to disappear.

3. PLUGIN COMPLETELY CRASHES: at random, the original images and the overlaid catchment basins seemed to become combined, so I cannot toggle off the overlaid basins. If I do try to toggle the basins, instead a brighter version of the basins starts toggling on and off, and these newer basins are overlaid overtop the combined TIFF image/old basins. All the interface buttons are greyed out and I have to close and restart the plugin.

Hello @dtstone
I do not observe this behavior. Can you tell me which version of MorphoLibJ are you using and under which operative system?

[dtstone]

I am running MorphoLibJ 1.3.3. I have used the plugin separately on Mac 10.12.6 and Windows 10 OS, and I have encountered all the above problems on both.

That's very strange. Can you please send me the image you are using and the sequence of steps that led you to the crashing?
