Description
From https://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/ome/ticket/3651#comment:7:
Also need to review the color selection based on wavelength:
E.g. lei/joel/sequental scan 2/
- Currently cut-off red->green is 560.
- We have two channels with emission filters: 553-618 and 665-800
- We pick wavelength as cut-in + 15 (ignore emission).
- Both these channels are therefore colored Red.
Although the above example could be fixed by adjusting the "+15" > increment to cut-in or by moving the green->red boundary, this could > easily "break" another format / example.
Color selection algorithm could be improved to order channels by > wavelength - Preferentially color Blue -> Green -> Red, instead of > color 2 channels same color.
If it's not being done already, it would also be a good idea to do something with the Channel.Color attribute, as this is now populated for a handful of formats (see #3651).
