You mean a simple no-op class similar to https://github.com/tlambert03/ome-types/blob/eea4f503e80018ca60be7ed0616e258d1471d455/src/ome_autogen.py#L981 ? This would work for this particular use case. I assume there is a built-in way to use the `xmlschema` encoding/decoding...

Thanks to @petebankhead for the investigation on the source of this issue. https://forum.image.sc/t/problem-about-opening-some-svs-slides-in-qupath-v0-3-1-bio-formats-6-8-0/61404/15 seems to indicate this impacts a subset of SVS files. As the testing of https://github.com/ome/bioformats/pull/3733 suggests, we...

Cross-linking to Pete's answer on the thread, the way OpenSlide makes the assignment between WSI and label/macro for the sample file mentioned in https://github.com/ome/bioformats/issues/3757#issuecomment-1013256884 is based on the usage of...

Possibly instance of this issue was reported in https://forum.image.sc/t/preview-error-when-tcga-svs-image-was-imported/67945 using a sample [SVS file](https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/files/01ae6c82-106d-4854-8209-068998340113) from the TCGA repository. Loooking at the TIFF structure ``` TIFF Directory at offset 0x3650c6ee (911263470)...

Retested briefly the sample file mentioned in https://github.com/ome/bioformats/issues/3757#issuecomment-1148456660 with an older version of Bio-Formats (prior to the changes introduced in https://github.com/ome/bioformats/pull/3733). In Bio-Formats 6.7.0, the data representation was as follows...

Initial testing using a copy of [this plate from idr0001](https://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/images/Flex/idr0001/) with an options file setting `flex.group.plate=true` seems to reveal: - Bio-Formats `showinf` correctly includes all measurement folders as part of...

Performed some additional testing using the first plate acquisition of the [sample idr0001 fileset](https://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/images/Flex/idr0001/X_110331_S13/) with the command-line tools with and without the `flex.group.plate` option. Without the option, `showinf` detect 96...

With the last changes, the non-regression tests are successfully passing with the default option behavior esp. using the [representative plate from idr0001](https://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/images/Flex/idr0001/). Turning the plate grouping option on either via...

@yearningk99 thanks for the feedback. I think the primary reason for the absence of convenience API is that, unlike OpenSlide, Bio-Formats was not designed with whole-slide imaging in mind. An...

Thanks. Trying to clarify my question, we are aware of the [OpenSlide.get_thumbnail()](https://openslide.org/api/python/#openslide.OpenSlide.get_thumbnail) API. Is this the one you have been using previously and for which you would like to have...
