History: 2012/11/28: First release

Source: Sampling_Window.java
Installation: Drag and drop Sampling_Window.class onto the "ImageJ" window and save it in the plugins folder.
Description: This plugin creates a non-destructive unbiased sampling window on the current image or stack. You can specify the window size and position, and the lines properties. Implementation is based on the Grid and Dotted line plugins.

Only the objects within the window or intersecting the window and not intersecting the full line are to be sampled.

A 3D version of the sampling window plugin is Disector (Sterio, 1984, Disector_.java Disector_.class). Only the particles within the window or intersecting the window and not intersecting the full line or the upper look up plane (the First slide) are to be sampled. Height of the disector is (Last slide - First slide) x Voxel depth.
