I am writing from the Cell Biology and Image Acquisition Core facility at the University of Ottawa. I recently noticed that we are having issues again with the BioFormats importer from colour images in the .zvi format. Previously this issue was resolved for our 12-bit colour images with the release of 5.4.0 (see below) and I had identified that it was the RGB channel count that was causing our images to open not as RGB but rather as a GGB image. Do you know if this is something that is being worked on?

BioFormats 5.4.0
*   Zeiss AxioVision ZVI (Zeiss Vision Image)
     *   ensure that the bitsPerPixel field is always set to match the final pixel type, and populate any channel colors that were parsed in the metadata. The bits per pixel update should only affect uint16 or int16 files where the acquisition bit depth is not a multiple of 8, and the RGB channel count is greater than 1


Thanks in advance for any insight/help you can provide,
