Folder = filedialog.askdirectory(title = "Select the directory containing Tif files")
ImageNames = os.listdir(Folder)
SaveFolder = Folder + " Split Red Channel2"
os.mkdir(SaveFolder)
os.chdir(Folder)
for Image in ImageNames:
if Image.split(".")[-1] == "tif":
print("here")
SplitRed = SplitChannel(Image)
os.chdir("...")
os.chdir(SaveFolder)
tif.imwrite(Image + "_Red.ome.tif",SplitRed,imagej= True)
os.chdir("...")
os.chdir(Folder)
