Description

Breaking #8830 into tasks.

Currently, the OME model stores all physical dimensions in µm, and time in s. However, not all images are at a scale which makes these units the most appropriate for display. Examples: electron microscopy at nm or Å scales, and much larger images, for example dissection microscope images at mm or cm scales. I understand there are also much larger scales also in use.

It would be a useful aid if the interface could rescale the measurement into the most appropriate unit. A good rule of thumb would be if it's <1 or >1000, then it needs rescaling to the next smaller or larger unit, respectively. Though cm and Å could be special-cased, perhaps. information, since the information can be imported verbatim. Tools like ImageJ also allow setting of arbitrary scales--this has no impact on making measurements, which are made in the selected pixel or physical units.
