Hi,

I would like to set the "default" 8-bit LUT of ImageJ so that 255 (saturated) is red and 0 (black) is blue during acquisition with digital monochrome cameras. this is standard on confocal microscopes, and is a big aid in obtaining images with as wide a dynamic range as possible.
In the LUT directory, there is no "grays" LUT, and changing the LUT only affects images, not acquisition windows.
I tried the live histogram plugin and the plot line profile, and they only seem to work on images and not on live acquisition windows.
Is this something that can be changed in ImageJ, or is it something that the camera software needs to control?
If it can be done within ImageJ, how is it done?
Thanks very much,
-Ron
