Hi Celeste,

Bene Schmid, the author of the 3D Viewer, may have other suggestions, but
here is one way:

1. Open your data as a normal hyperstack.
2. Run Image > Color > Make Composite and ensure it is in Composite mode.
3. Optionally, use the Image > Lookup Tables for each channel to assign the
desired color table to each channel.
4. Flatten the channels using Image > Type > RGB Color (note: this will
force each channel to 8-bit, which may be lossy depending on your data)
5. Run Plugins > 3D Viewer to get a color 3D visualization.

Regards,
Curtis
