 Don't select features if you don't need them! This will reduce processing times and space requirements. Don't select features if you don't need them! This will reduce processing times and space requirements.

 +If you want to measure a feature that you can't see here, you may be able to write a new function to extract it using FAST's integrated custom feature extraction system. [[usage:advanced_usage#custom_feature_extraction|Please see the documentation on this topic to see whether this could work for you.]]

-The trackableData structure forms the basis of the feature tracking module, and can be used in its own right for, for example, [[extra:faqs#what_is_image_cytometry_can_it_be_performed_by_fast|image cytometry]].

 +Values stored in identically indexed locations in the different fields of trackableData belong to the same object. For example, the width of object 10 at time 20 is stored in  
 + 
 +  trackableData.Width{20}(10) 
 + 
 +while its orientation is stored in  
 + 
 +  trackableData.Orientation{20}(10) 
 +   
 +For fields that contain multi-dimensional arrays rather than vectors (such as 'Centroid'), the object index corresponds to the row of the array. For example, the $x,y$-coordinates of the above object are stored in 
 + 
 +  trackableData.Centroid{20}(10,:

 +All geometrical measurements (length, width, area, position and orientation) are stored in physical units, while fluorescence-associated measurements (channel mean and channel standard deviation) are stored in arbitrary units.
