![]() ![]() These should be directed to the DigitalMicrograph™ Script Database, a large repository of DM scripts by a wide range of authors. This site is not intended as a repository of software by other authors.However, if you do redistribute such modified software, please attribute the original bits to the author. The more scripters there are out there, the better. If users wish to modify any of this code, again they are welcome to do so.Please consider citing this article if you have found some of the more general software tools useful. There is also a paper in Ultramicroscopy which discusses the general methods, techniques and benefits of scripting. Some relate to specific software tools - if you use those, please consider citing the relevant papers. The author has written a number of journal articles on scripting. If this software contributes in any significant way to any published works acknowledgements are always welcome, and citations even more so. That is absolutely fine - users are welcome to use this software as they see fit. Visitors to this site may simply wish to download specific tools and implement them without ever understanding the scripting involved.Scripts can be incorporated into DigitalMicrograph™ as new menu items, and thereafter the implementation is effortless and the tools can be used by users without any scripting knowledge.This allows users to fully customise their microscopy environment and to provide niche capabilities which no manufacturer could ever hope to do in a commercial program. This allows users to develop programs (scripts) to do everything from simple image manipulation, through to sophisticated data acquisition systems for controlling microscope hardware. Perhaps the most powerful attribute of DigitalMicrograph™ is also its least well known, namely that it is fully scriptable. In its own right, DigitalMicrograph™ is a powerful image processing and manipulation program, which can be used to manipulate and process images from a range of sources, not just those derived from TEM. As such, this software is used by the majority of TEM users in the World. DigitalMicrograph™ also interfaces with non-Gatan hardware, such as the Omega filter on JEOL's 2200FS TEM. DigitalMicrograph™ is Gatan's software front-end to their range of cameras and spectrometers for transmission electron microscopy (TEM).However, as I no longer have access to microscopes, my ability to support hardware-related issues will be limited. I will continue to maintain this site, at least for a while, and will be happy to support users with queries or issues relating to my scripts. However, I remain open to offers of interesting short-term work, such as consulting, staff training, facility development etc. I will not be looking for a full-time position and will probably retire in the next few months. ![]() Update March 2023: Due to budget cuts by the University of Wollongong, my position at the microscopy centre has not been continued.Home Page Scripting Resources for DigitalMicrograph™ĭave Mitchell's DigitalMicrograph™ Scripting Website Home ![]()
