I was using N5IJUtils.load and it has 2 problems for me.
- It opens the stack non-virtually.
- It doesn't copy metadata over.
I made a class to resolve some of these issues for myself, but if N5IJUtils.load worked the way I like then the class could be removed altogether.
The class I made is MultiscaleImageAdapter. I just create a new ImagePlus, then set a virtual stack based on the type. I could make a pull request if you're interested. I also address channel order issue by using the Axis order.
