Description

IJ2's display of color data needs improvement. The easiest way to see this is to load Organ of Corti in both IJ1 & IJ2 and scroll through the sliders. IJ1 has much better detail.

This problem is due to a lack of autoscaling; see #384. The Organ of Corti is also displaying an COLOR mode rather than COMPOSITE for some reason.

Found the issue with image not displaying as composite. Composite channel count was not getting set in legacy layer. That issue is now fixed.

At some point autoscaling improved the display of Organ of Corti. But this is a reminder that the display is still not correct. Some pixels are saturated.

Display of 16-bit Color Images:

Opening an image using IJ1 opener, this manifests in OrganOfCorti having max'ed out pixels. (Note that OrganOfCorti is an unsigned, 16-bit, 4 channel image.)

When opened with the IJ2 opener, it does not display as a composite, but as a 4 channel image with 4 diff. color tables.

This is about a set of issues that we punted back in March regarding color images.
We added abstract ColorTable<T> and ColorTable16 after we built some classes using ColorTable8, specifically RealLUTConverter and AbstractDatasetView.

Also, LegacyUtils uses ColorTable, but in
List<ColorTable<?>> colorTablesFromImagePlus(ImagePlus imp),
the 16-bit isssue has been anticipated, but the code is commented out:
if (icm.getPixelSize() == 16) is 16 bit table
cTable = make16BitColorTable(icm);

Looks like we need to add 16-bit versions of make8BitColorTable and make8BitLut.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

(In [3527]) Update references to CompositeXYProjector.

Fixes #514, due to changes in ImgLib2.

Changed OrganOfCorti from 4 to 3 channels, but it does not open as a composite.
the 4th channel in OrganOfCorti exposed the fact that the addition of RGB values was not limited to 255.

So we made CompositeXYProjector<A> extends XYProjector<A, ARGBType>
and inDatasetView and AbstractDatasetView, CompositeXYProjector<? extends RealType<?>> changed to CompositeXYProjector<? extends RealType<?>, ARGBType>
