does this open the latest leica formats for .lif?

This would be for LAS X version 3.5.0

ImageJ and Fiji do but I'm looking for a pure python app

I get the error

from aicsimageio import AICSImage
img = AICSImage("E:\Users\klingr\FLIM\Example_FLIM.lif")
File "", line 1
img = AICSImage("E:\Users\klingr\FLIM\Example_FLIM.lif")
^
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 2-3: truncated \UXXXXXXXX escape

Can you provide a link to your file or a similar example file. We can't debug without an image.

Also you could simply try it. The aicsimageio api should be simple enough to do this:

img = AICSImage("path/to/lif", reader=LifReader)
print(img.shape)
array = img.get_image_data("TCZYX")
etc...

[toloudis]

Sorry, I just saw that you have some output from trying it. Specifying the reader might help for sure, as it will ensure not testing any other readers.
As @evamaxfield said, supplying us a file we can use to reproduce will definitely help.

I also found this, which may imply that readlif is not ready to read these files just yet, but that the changes to do so may not be too difficult: Arcadia-Science/readlif#43

I tried the first suggestion and got the same error

from aicsimageio import AICSImage

img = AICSImage("E:\Users\klingr\FLIM\Example_FLIM.lif", reader=LifReader)
File "", line 1
img = AICSImage("E:\Users\klingr\FLIM\Example_FLIM.lif", reader=LifReader)
^

Closing with #491 as the matching issue. See also #517 for a potential follow-up bug.
