Hello, I'm presently using Gwyddion 2.13 on Ubuntu 9.04 and I'm having a problem opening _some_ .mi files (the header says something about PicoView 0x10600). I hex dumped two files, one that I can open and one that I can't. In the file that I can open, the last thing I can read is "BINARY" and then 0x0a. In the unreadable file it's "BINARY_32" and then 0x0a.
It appears that .mi files can come in at least two flavors, 16-bit and 32-bit and that Gwyddion can't deal with the 32-bit ones. Gwyddion can't open these files (claims they're corrupt or some such) and no thumbnails are displayed, not in Gwyddion's open file dialog nor in Ubuntu's file browser (which is some kind of gnome thing, I'm guessing). As I said earlier I'm presently using Gwyddion 2.13 and Ubuntu 9.04 but I've also seen this problem with Gwyddion 2.16 and Ubuntu 9.10. My questions: Did I get it right, are there these two different kinds of .mi files and that Gwyddion is not able to read one of them? Secondly, is there a way to determine, from looking at the header, how many channels a file contains?
