Description jacrone 2014-08-15 13:54:10 CDT

When I open some images in FIJI, they look as though auto brightness/contrast has been used on them. Opening them in Windows preview shows the original image. Restarting FIJI or the computer did not help. Updating FIJI did not help, but downloading the backup copy from the FIJI website fixed the problem. However, when I updated FIJI again, the problem came back. I took screenshots of the images if that helps.

This is a SCIFIO bug. You can work around it by unchecking "Use SCIFIO when opening files" in Edit>Options>ImageJ2.

Deselecting SCIFIO solved the problem. Thanks Wayne!
