Hello list,
 I have a simple question but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere.
I would like my plugin to draw some colored lines on an image (actually
some slices in a stack) but my images are 16-bit grayscale .tiff´s. I
try using  ip.setColor but no matter what color I set it to I always get
some shade of gray or black. My question is simple. How (in a plugin) do
I draw a color overlay on a grayscale image..
thanks in advance
