Note
This documentation is for the new Bio-Formats 5.1 version. See the latest Bio-Formats 5.0.x version or the previous versions page to find documentation for the version you are using.
Files can be displayed from the command line in ImageJ. The Bio-Formats importer plugin for ImageJ is used to open the file.
The command takes a single argument:
ijview /file/to/open
If the input file is not specified, ImageJ will show a file chooser window.
The Bio-Formats import options window will then appear, after which the image(s) will be displayed.
If the BF_DEVEL environment variable is set, the ImageJ jar <jars/ij.jar> must be included in the classpath.
