Switching filters will always be too slow in line by line aquisition, so i think you should only switch lasers. The protocol for CFP/YFP would be to aquire with 458 excitation the CFP emission at 475 - 525 nm and the YFP emission > 525 nm and the switch to 514.5 excitation and collect only the YFP emission at > 525 nm.

best wishes

Hi Andreas,

The issue is not grouping channels in the sequential box and choosing line
and frame. The issue is changing filter sets quickly. To take the 3 images
DD, DA, AA the filter/light pathway has to be changed between images. DD
and DA  or DD and AA can be taken in the same configuration, but AA and DA
can't. So the only way I can see is to use the Virtual channels and that
is too slow line by Line.

Best

JP
