Q: How to render xenium morphology image with original colors?

Hello @LucaMarconato!

Thank you very much for this tool. I want to plot a part of morphology image acquired with xenium + multimodal segmentation kit. It is loaded into spatialdata and plotted without errors, but the colors are dim and they are different from what I'd expected (DAPI - #0F73E6, Boundary - #F300A5, Interior RNA - #A4A400, interior protein - #008A00, reference values from Xenium Explorer). I tried passing a list of colors like this:

crop = lambda sdata: spatialdata.bounding_box_query(
    sdata,
    min_coordinate=[17_500, 55_000],
    max_coordinate=[19_500, 57_000],
    axes=("x", "y"),
    target_coordinate_system="global",
)

crop(sdata).pl.render_images("morphology_focus", ["#0F73E6", "#F300A5", "#A4A400", "#008A00"]).pl.show(
    ax=axes[0], title="Morphology image", coordinate_systems="global"
)

The code does not produce an error, it works twice as long, and it results in the same image with colors unchanged.

The key question is how to adjust the colors and saturation of the plot, so that it looked closer to what I see in Xenium Explorer?

Secondary question is how to translate physical coordinates into spatialdata's global coordinate system? Am I supposed to get transformation and then apply transformation to a single or a couple points to get min and max for cropping above? I can make a separate issue with this question, if necessary.

Best,
Vasily

morphology_focus に対する render_images 呼び出しから始め、color 引数が描画画像にどのような影響を与えるかを追跡します。描画された色を Xenium Explorer の参照値と比較し、別途、bounding_box_query が指定された物理座標に対してグローバル座標系をどのように使用するかを調べます。完了の基準は、色の挙動と座標変換が再現可能な例とともに文書化されるか、修正されることです。
