Hey,

First of all thanks for the quick answer.

I should've mentioned that I already aligned the stack and disabled the centroid function. All I want to do is perform several multi-aperture measurements with the very aperture locations as in the first run (for target and comparison objects) on the same aligned stack of images but with different radii of the object and outer/inner background annulus.

My problem so far was that I always had to re-select the target as soon as I clicked on the "multi-aperture measurement"-tool to measure again with different radii. (The comparison objects were placed automatically as I had the "Use last N apertures" option enabled.) I just want ALL the apertures (target aperture included) with different radii than before to be placed at the exact same positions as in the previous measurement. I wan't to avoid adding inaccuracy by having to select the target location on my own again in every measurement.

I could try to save and load the aperture settings, but I guess that will either just save the radii settings and maybe the location aswell, but as I want the same location but with different radii that will probably not work out for me. (I'm just assuming this as I can't try it at the moment.)

It would be good if there was a way to just re-run a measurement with the apertures staying at position and the option to change their radii or enable/disable several settings. (Or maybe there is and I just wasn't able to find it, yet.) So far, I always clicked on the "multi-aperture measurement" button in the toolbar to re-perform a measurement, which always clears out the previous apertures.

Regards,
Fabian
