Support for .xlef and .lof Leica files in Fiji

Postby Jakob » Tue Mar 21, 2017 1:48 pm

Hi,

I would like to open and analyze ".xlef" and ".lof" files with Fiji. However, it seems that this is currently not possible.

These files are generated with Digital Lightsheet (DLS) on the Leica TCS SP8 microscope and an autosave mechanism.

What should I do?

Thanks so much for your help!

Jakob

Hi Jakob,

Thanks for contacting us. The Leica LOF format has certainly been brought to our attention by the community in the last few months (see this thread for instance)

We have received some specification documents from Leica which confirmed supporting these new files will require the development of a new format reader and a minor version increment of Bio-Formats. At the moment, we are collecting additional test files and have no active work engaged on developing the thread. If you want to follow the progress/changes, you can refer to the public Trac ticket and Trello card).

Best,
Sebastien
