I vote yes.
You can use a switch component to let the user decide if he wants a B\G or a R\B or a R\G merge.

Here is combined filter with all three modes. moreover it makes montage.
Filter named as Pseudocolor-montage

Pseudocolor-montage.ffxml

I see in the montage that the lower right square is empty.
Why not put another merge instead?
In the example above you have R/G on the left, you can have B/G on the right, for example.
You can even use the switch to cycle between R/G+R/B, R/B+G/B or R/G+G/B.

I think this single filter can be launched a s a free-pack

And if you dont mind can have my username mentioned in the free-pack description.

Personally I'd rather give a Basic edition license to a lab that needs a filter of this kind, instead of spending resources to compile, test and publish such a niche freepack.

There must be existing free tools that produce this effect.

If not you should learn to program.

@ uberzev

image J n photoshop can do merging n montage in 2 step n its tricky.
in FF its 1 step n simple.

Uglyboys isn't GMM suggesting they will give free basic edition to labs, isn't that better than free packs, where you can design more filters suitable for labs, or update the filters you've made, where in a free pack you couldn't

uglyboys are you sure no existing tool exists for generating this result?

Take a look at the bottom of this Wiki page for a bunch of free programs...

Does it look like FilterForge markets their stuff towards scientists? Answer: no.

Yeah sure you can make cool science filters and put them in the library but why push for a free pack? I'm pretty darn sure there's also the issue of credibility of the program you use. My friends use matlab, mathematica, photoshop (and other tools) which have credibility for research purposes. The fact that a "freepack" was suggested already hurts credibility. Think about it, you're basically using a restrictive demo-like version of FilterForge that can't do anything but produce that filter effect. So are you going to put down "Image was processed using FilterForge free pack" on your paper? I hope not. So now what are we left with? Hobbyists? Even Hobbyists have their own programs they use.

Look, I think I can give all the love and credit for making the filters. I respect you for that. Ok? But I don't respect people saying things like "I expected some courtesy in [the] name of Science" especially to pitch an idea. You're buying feelings with that phrase. That's wrong, especially when I see it under the name of science. Sure, there are people who say these things, but it's just not appropriate here.

I love everybody ok? I don't like arguing and I hate to see forum posts burn. But I needed to say that and get it off my chest. I'm an artist, and I love science. And there are some things that get pushed too far and this was one of those times that things went in the wrong direction. If suggestions get bunked or rejected, don't ride over it. It just hurts yourself and I hate seeing people get hurt on forum commentary.
