-Converts xyzt time series (single tiff series) generated by[[http://www.embl-heidelberg.de/almf/html/PE_Plugins.htm|Perkin-Elmer Loader (E.

These tiff files are named as follows:\\ \\  
-    Z000_c1_T0000.tif   +    Z000_c1_T0000.tif

-The macro produces Z-stack for each time points (metamorph format). For example, if there were 30 Z slices and 100 time points, original tiff-series would have 3000 single XY files. This macro converts these 3000 files to 100 tiff-stacks, each containing 30 z-frames. \\  +The macro produces?Z-stack for each time points (metamorph format).

This macro converts these 3000 files to 100 tiff-stacks, each containing 30 z-frames. \\  
-In addition, the macro generates a stack named "projection2D.tif" containing maximum intensity projection of each time points. In the example above, projection2D.tif stack would have 100 frames. Each frame in this projection stack is added with the file name of original 3D stack as metadata (slice label). This metadata is used in the [[http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/plugins/track/track.html|Manual Tracking plugin]] when it retrieves Z coordinates from 3D stacks.\\ \\ +In addition, the macro generates a stack named "projection2D.tif" containing maximum intensity projection of each time points.

-**2.** Do **[Plugins -> Macros -> do Processing]**. In the first dialog window, input the number of z-slices. In the second dialog, input the number of time points. Be Careful: since the frame number start from 0, the last frame number + 1 is the total number of frames in z or t. For example,  if the last time point is "36", then there are 37 time points. \\ \\ +**2.** Do **[Plugins -> Macros -> do Processing]**. In the first dialog window, input the number of z-slices.
