Dear Aladin team

Is it possible to show RGB data from a Healpix FITS file in Aladin? I have red, green and blue brightness values for each Healpix pixel and would like to display an RGB image in Aladin. If it is possible, could someone show me an example file with the correct format?

I know this is possible with HiPS, but I can't find anything about it for Healpix on the web.

Best wishes

Jeremy Sanders
