Automatic Fallback for Dense Montage Grids

July 30, 2026

Some montage captures pack in more tiles than can be rendered legibly. Plate and well views now detect this and fall back to a single representative tile per well, with a clear "Too many images per well" notice, rather than showing tiny unreadable thumbnails.

Details

  • Plates too dense to display legibly fall back to one representative tile per well, with a clear "Too many images per well" notice rather than unreadable thumbnails.
  • Observations whose layout data can't be interpreted show an explanatory placeholder instead of a potentially misleading image. Well pages still show every individual site image.
  • Plate image export and AI report overviews only generate when image geometry can be read correctly, avoiding exports that misrepresent the data.
