I work at a small mechanical engineering company, where I develop software and image processing algorithms for camera-based inspection machines.

Why not simply use a LocatorPane instead?

comment How do the experts use the interactive notebook facilities of Mathematica?
You can turn off case-sensitivity in the preferences (just uncheck "match case in command completion"). And when I select a command from command completion, I get a little arrow-icon after and below the command. Click that icon to see the parameters or get a link to the documentation.

comment Counting radial ridges on an image
If you want 96, you could use DistanceFunction -> "MutualInformationVariation". That's not very scientific, though. ;-)

comment Count Elements in Image
If you just want information about the components (centroid, caliper length), ComponentMeasurements should be more useful than SelectComponents

comment Use of own unit abbreviations
So I'm not the only one who did that (mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/15338/…). But you need some workarounds to make it work if some values can become 0.

comment What is Mathematica's equivalent to MATLAB's Simulink?
I've heard of SystemModeler, but didn't have time to download a demo and play with it. For me (and others, I think) this answer could be improved a lot by showing one or more simple problems and how they would be tackled with Simulink and SystemModeler.

comment The correct way to linearize colorspace before resizing, blurring etc
I've tested this with (industrial) cameras, grayvalues were practically linear. So this is probably not a property of the color space, but of the camera type and analog/digital preprocessing done in the camera. But if it isn't linear - why not just use ImageApply before resizing?

comment Version 9 Blue Screen or Self-Test Error on Windows 7 64-bit
Great! Your answer worked on my machine, too. No more bluescreens when I enter [esc]pw[esc]!

comment Version 9 Blue Screen or Self-Test Error on Windows 7 64-bit
+1. I have a similar problem, only my machine bluescreens when Mathematica tries to render the piecewise symbol, or when I open the fonts control panel folder. I "fixed" it by removing the Mathematica5.ttf font. I thought this was a bug in my video driver, but maybe something's wrong with this ttf file.
