Problems with MacBook Pro #15

Open Kmulkey opened 2 months ago

Kmulkey commented 2 months ago

Hello, I have just started using quickfigures and I do like it but there seems to be glitches that are hard to understand. The program freezes up sometimes and it doesn't perform like it does in the videos.

Are there things I can do with my computer that will improve the performance?

Have a good day, Kent

Hi Kent, Thanks you for letting me know. Although there may be issues with extremely large files, I expect a normal macbook pro to work. Are there specific circumstances that trigger a freeze? Also, can you describe the glitches in more detail? I would like to work on these problems but dont have enough information to figure out what is happening.

Best, g

G, quickfiles seems to have a life of its own. It makes itself present even when I do not want that.

It causes FIJI to load oddly. I load FIJI, and then quick files loads, then fiji disappears. I have to reload FIJI.

It appears that FIJI gets bogged down when using Quick Figures. Maybe a RAM issues but I do have 16 Gb in the machine.

Starting to work with some confocal images from a stitched collection of immuno-stained drosophila cryosections. I want to put 12 images in one figure and QF gets really slow.

Hi Kent, When you first ran QuickFigures, it should have asked you if you want Quickfigures to open every time imageJ opens. Assuming you clicked yes, you can still change that option. In the edit menu of ImageJ, go to "Edit > Options > Startup...". Delete the run commands for QuickFigures, (should be 'run("Object Tools");' line and a few others.
