Stacking question regarding mono CCD frames

[gquinzi]

Hello all, forgive me if this has already been covered but I have watched quite a few tutorials on stacking / registration etc.  I've been looking for the most efficient way to stack my narrowband images into 3 separate stacked channels.  Most examples show lrgb or simply rgb data that are already stacked into separate channels and the presenter is merely showing us how to do a color combine.  What I am wanting to know is if there is a quick way to stack all channels (Ha, OIII, SII) simultaneously but the end result would be 3 separate windows for each color?  Kinda like Maxim DL which has that option (under Stack > Combine > options > keep individual color planes) 

Also, if we have to stack each color channel separately, is it advisable to register stars for each channel or just do all channels at once prior to stacking?

Thank you very much in advance,

you can certainly do all the registration in one step without regard to the filter.

as for doing the different filter integrations simultaneously, you should be able to use the BatchPreProcessing script to accomplish that. the ImageIntegration process simply integrates everything loaded into it into a single image.

Hello and thanks Rob, I was actually wanting to batch process all (say like 45 lights) to 3 single stacked images - one for each channel not a single frame.

I spoke with another pi user who informed me stacking each channel separately is pretty much the norm.
