Preferences / Customization

The Microscopy Nodes addon has Preferences to allow for a custom experience and defaults.

You can find these under Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Microscopy Nodes.

Here we get multiple options for defaults and settings:

  • Default "Path"

    The cache path that is set if the load option Path is selected

  • Default "Temporary"

    The cache path that is generated when load option Temporary is selected

  • Default channels + channel number

    This defines the default settings for the channel interface when a new dataset is loaded. If more channels are present in the data than defaults, the list revolves.

  • Extra channel slots

    Reserves empty channel entries for adding derived or separately masked grids to the Geometry Nodes and shader channel bundles.

  • On load slice cube mode

    Shader gives a clean bounding-box slice. Geometry creates voxel masks that can use custom shapes, separate inside/outside regions, and drive sparse reloading. See Slice, mask, and recolor data.

  • Mesh density

    This sets how fine/coarse the geometries for labelmasks and surfaces are

  • Invert Color

    Inverts all colormaps on load and replace

  • Overwrite local files (debug)

    If reloading fails for some reason, this is useful to check, but is usually only used for development.
