Hi, example: I have a LEXT file consisting of images of a graphite flake, covered with a thin layer of organic molecules. The graphite flake shows up in the height image since it is up to several microns tall. The thin layer (some nanometers) of organic molecules does not show up in the height image, but in the optical image since it is forming different domains leading to different colors. So, I want to take the height image, display in it 3d view, but then color it with the optical image. Of course, I can do that following these steps
1. generate a tiff from the optical image in an image manipulation program 2. load the RGB channels of the tiff with Gwyddion 3. load the height image with Gwyddion 4. overlay the height image in Gwyddion in 3d view with the R,G, and B channel, getting three images 5. save the three images 6. load these images with the image manipulation program, combine them back to a (colored) RGB image A lot of steps. If Gwyddion could load the RGB channels of the optical image, I could replace steps 1-3 with just one step. Kind regards, Frank. > But why would you want to do something so complicated?
