Currently the widgets provide no information on what layers need to be selected to use the widget. This should be added as contextual information somewhere inside the widget panel.

User story:

  1. I open an RGB image and the scatter plot widget.
  2. It tells me I need to select two layers.
  3. I select the first layer: no change.
  4. I select the second layer, and the help text disappears. A scatter plot is filled 🥳.
  5. I unselect one layer, the help text reappears.

Sorry, I forgot about this issue when I was doing #139, and just realised you're assigned.

I think #139 fixes this? I'm more in favour of a static bit of text than text that appears/disappears depending on how many layers are selected.

No no all good. I wasn't doing it. And yes: fewer "moving pieces" is probably better.
