For what specifically are these settings needed in your reader? If we<br>
know the use case, we might be able to suggest an alternative.<br>

In my reader it takes quite some time to extract the ROIs (data may contain long time-lapse...). Of course, I would try to avoid reading the ROIs in, when the user actually just wants to look at the raw pixel data (i.e. "Display ROIs" not checked)<br>
