Leica TCS SP2 Overlay

In LCS you can save the overlay by right clicking on it and selecting save as. It will be saved into your experiment folder as an rgb tiff.. I am not sure why Leica made it so difficult. The older TCS software is much easier. I have yet to see LAS AF but hopefully they have made it easier to save the way you want to. In TCS you display the overlay in the image box and select save as on the file menu.
