Support multi-object files types in explorer interactions #59

Closed SeanLeRoy closed 6 months ago

SeanLeRoy commented 9 months ago

By right-clicking on a file selection you can select a number of interaction options to choose from. OME ZARRs are multi object file types so they may not work with the assumptions built-in (unsure) like for example the app may assume that everything is a path to a single object and that may cause issues like with node operations. Verifying each of the interactions work with an OME ZARR for example is a good test to see what users can expect and if anything needs to be changed around to enable supporting OME ZARR interactions. Specifically, I imagine viewing in certain viewers like ImageJ or FIJI are important enough to make an effort to ensure support and downloading files will likely require some rearranging of logic.
