AW: Conversion OIB into TIFF: bug

Hi Curtis,
Thanks for the help! It partially explains my problem. However, i also have the same problem when I use a macro that converts OIB files to TIFF files and adjusts the colours. The macro is as follows:

dir1 = getDirectory("Choose Source Directory ");
  dir2 = getDirectory("Choose Destination Directory ");
  list = getFileList(dir1);
  setBatchMode(true);
  for (i=0; i<list.length; i++) {
     showProgress(i+1, list.length);
     name=dir1+list[i];
run("Bio-Formats Importer", "open=["+name+"] autoscale=false color_mode=Grayscale view=Hyperstack stack_order=XYCZT");
run("Split Channels");
selectWindow("C2-"+list[i]);
red=getTitle();
selectWindow("C1-"+list[i]);
yellow=getTitle();
run("Merge Channels...", "red=["+red+"]  yellow["+yellow+"]  create ignore");
saveAs("TIFF", dir2+list[i]);
}


Can you or anyone else help?

Best,
Alex

Hi Alexander,

Bio-Formats will adjust the brightness/contrast if (and only if) the
"Autoscale" option is checked. Otherwise, it will use the default scaling
for your image's bit depth (which might result in an all-black-looking or
very dim image; see
http://imagej.net/Troubleshooting#The_image_I_loaded_is_displayed_all_black.21_But_it_is_not_black.21
).

When you inspect the pixel values (mouse over a pixel and look at the
ImageJ main window status bar) of the original OIB file, and the converted
TIFF file, do they match?

Regards,
Curtis
