How to do a line selection in fiji (imagej) using specified coords

How to select a line in an image using ImageJ/Fiji by setting its start and end points? As in not drawing it over the image, but inputting the coordinates directly somewhere.

Solution

  • open script editor, select IJ1 macro and then type the code below and then run. 

    makeLine(1, 1, 100, 100);

    This will create a line ROI between (1,1) and (100, 100).
