Good morning!

I have an ImagePlus stack ('impoutstack'), 32 bit, and I would like to save
it as a 16 bit tif stack.
I did this:

*ImageProcessor ip = impoutstack.getProcessor();
impoutstack.setProcessor(null, ip.convertToShort(true)); // conversion
impoutstack.setCalibration(impoutstack.getCalibration()); // update
calibration
FileSaver saverstack = new FileSaver(impoutstack);*
*saverstack.saveAsTiffStack(pathout + "/" + filename + ".tif");*

but at run time I get the exception

*java.lang.ClassCastExceprion at ij.io.ImageWriter.write16BitStack*

Does anyone know how to easily save as 16 bit tif stack?

Thanks a lot,
Alessandra
