Hi Sonky,

Are you using FIJI (ImageJ2)? If yes, you can try to turn off the SCIFIO under Edit>Options>ImageJ2. I encounter an issue that FIJI (ImageJ2) did not open my RGB image correctly but it works again after I turn off SCIFO.

Another thing that you can try is go to Image>Hyperstacks>Stack to Hyperstack..., set the correct number of slices and channel.

Best Regards,
John

Subject: FIJI thinks my greyscale image stack is a coloured image?

Hi all, I've got a simple question. Why does FIJI open my stack of grayscale
images as a colour image?? I know it does this because of the letter "c" in
place of the "play" button when we want to scroll between slices in a stack.
Also it does this annoying thing where it colour codes i.e. Slice #1: Red,
Slice #2: Green..etc.. this goes on to Slice #6: Yellow.. and Slice 7
onwards to Slice 361 remains gray (its original colour). All images are
acquired by a monochromatic sensor so I know the colour is not real.

When I apply a 'Grays' LUT, it either doesn't save or I wants me to convert
to 8-bits first. But doing so doesnt solve the problem of the "c" slider.
In addition, I found that when the "c" slider is present, I can't adjust the
Brightness/Contrast for all slices whereas before I normally could with a
standard greyscale stack. *When I tried opening the SAME image file using
ImageJ, it opens normally* without the pseudo-colouring the first 6 slices.
Everyhting else also works when opened in ImageJ (as opposed to FIJI)

The image on the right and left essentially the same opened in different
programs.. Would really appreciate if someine can explain to me how to stop
this annoying behaviour!
